* Overview
isbn.rb provides the ISBN class whose instance represents an ISBN code.
There are two types of ISBNs which differ in the length of digits. 
ISBN class abstructs both ISBN-10 and ISBN-13 in a same manner and 
provides methods to convert one another. 

isbn.rb also provides some methods to create new instances of ISBN class
from Integer, String, and Array. 

Typical use of isbn.rb is as follows.

  irb(main):001:0> load "isbn.rb"
  true

  irb(main):002:0> sicp = ISBN.new("0262011530")
  0262011530

  irb(main):003:0> sicp.isbn13
  9780262011532

  irb(main):004:0> sicp.to_s(1,3,5)
  "0-262-01153-0"

  irb(main):005:0> sicp.isbn10
  0262011530

  irb(main):006:0> sicp2 = 9780262011532.isbn
  9780262011532

  irb(main):007:0> sicp == sicp2
  true

  ...

  irb(main):010:0> sicpj = 9784894711631.to_isbn
  9784894711631

  irb(main):011:0> sicpj.isbn10.to_s(1,5,3," ")
  "4 89471 163 X"
