Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The weight assigned to each digit in a routing number is based on the position of the digit in the number. As a result, transposition errors (where digits are switched in position) can be detected by the weight assigned to each digit. Most single-digit errors can also be detected, but some multiple-digit errors may not be caught by the weight validation process.
