Given some Legal Identity Identifier, the task is to check if they are valid or not using regular expressions.  Rules for the valid LEI are: 

  • LEI code length is comprised of a 20-digit alphanumeric code.
    • The first four characters are digits
    • Next two places are reserved for digit Zero.
    • Next 12 characters are reserved for an alphanumeric code containing digits and uppercase letters.
    • Last two places are reserved for digits(0-9).
  • It should not contain any other special characters.

Examples:

Input: str = ”123456ABCDE7810FGH19”
Output: False
Explanation: As we have pointed above that characters at places 5 and 6 is reserved for digit ZERO.
Here instead of ZERO it is occupied by 5 and 6 digit consecutively.

Input: str= ”123400ABCDE7810FGHMN”
Output: False
Explanation : Last two digits should be digits only.

Input: str=”123400ABCDE7810F”
Output: False
Explanation : LEI Code length should be equal to 20  following all the necessary conditions.

Input: str=”123400ABCDE7810FGH07”
Output: True
Explanation : This pattern satisfies all the above noted points.

Approach: The problem can be solved based on the following idea:

Create a regex pattern to validate the number as written below:   

regex= ^[0-9]{4}[0]{2}[A-Z0-9]{12}[0-9]{2}$

Where, 
^ : Start of the string
[0-9]{4} : This pattern will match four of the preceding items in the range from 0 to 9.
[0]{2} :This pattern will match two of the preceding items if they are ZERO.
[A-Z0-9]{12} : This  pattern will match 12 of the preceding items in the range from 0 to 9 or “A” to “Z”.
[0-9]{2} : This pattern will match two of the preceding items if they are in the range from 0 to 9.
$ : Indicates the end of the string.

Follow the steps mentioned below to implement the idea:

  • Create regex expression for Time formats.
  • Use Pattern class to compile the regex formed.
  • Use the matcher function to check whether the Time format is valid or not.
  • If it is valid, return true. Otherwise, return false.

Below is the implementation of the above approach.

C++




// C++ program to validate the
// LEI(Legal Identity Identifier) Code
// using Regular Expression
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#include <regex>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to validate the
// LEI Code
string isValid_LEICode(string str)
{
    // Regex to check valid
    // LEI Code.
    const regex pattern(
        "^[0-9]{4}[0]{2}[A-Z0-9]{12}[0-9]{2}$");
 
    // If the str
    // is empty return false
    if (str.empty()) {
        return "false";
    }
 
    // Return true if the str
    // matched the ReGex
    if (regex_match(str, pattern)) {
        return "true";
    }
    else {
        return "false";
    }
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Test Case 1:
    string str1 = "199800RAH1207XYDCQ23";
    cout << isValid_LEICode(str1) << endl;
 
    // Test Case 2:
    string str2 = "123400ABCDE7810FGH07";
    cout << isValid_LEICode(str2) << endl;
 
    // Test Case 3:
    string str3 = "123456ABCDE7810FGH19";
    cout << isValid_LEICode(str3) << endl;
 
    // Test Case 4:
    string str4 = "123400ABCDE7810FGHMN";
    cout << isValid_LEICode(str4) << endl;
 
    // Test Case 5:
    string str5 = "123400ABCDE7810F";
    cout << isValid_LEICode(str5) << endl;
 
    // Test Case 6:
    string str6 = "AKAN00ABCDE7810FGH12";
    cout << isValid_LEICode(str6) << endl;
 
    return 0;
}

true
true

false
false

Time Complexity: O(N) for each test case, where N is the length of the given string. 
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
