Check codes are designed to pick up common errors such as transposing two digits or miscopying a single digit. A person types the code number into a machine which decides whether it is a valid code or not. If someone types in a US Postal Service Money Order number and makes a single error, just one mistake in one digit, will the machine pick up every error of this type? Will a machine always pick up an error in a single digit for an airline ticket number?

US Postal Service Money Order: This is an eleven digit number using digits 1,2,...9 where the sum of the first ten digits is congruent to the eleventh digit modulo 9. That is $a_{1} a_{2} \dots a_{11}$ where $a_{1} + \dots + a_{10} \equiv a_{11}$ mod $9$ .
Airline tickets: This number can be any length. It uses the digits 0 to 9 and the last digit is a check digit. The number formed by omitting the check digit must be congruent to the check digit modulo 7.
That is $a_{1} \dots a_{n} a_{n + 1}$ where $a_{1} a_{2} \dots a_{n} \equiv a_{n + 1}$ mod 7.
