This could use some refactor and common parts be shared between this and passesAddressChecksum.

Sure, I'll push something up in a moment. One thing I think I could do as well, is just get rid of the check to see if addressCharacter is a number or not - according to isupper docs, it'll return the same character if a number (or something without an uppercase component) is passed in. I wasn't sure if I should leave the check in for clarity though.

Refactored. Let me know if that's what you had in mind. |
|
Sorry, by refactoring I've meant to pull out the common parts between the two functions. |

I think this should instead point to https://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/develop/types.html#address-literals

Gotcha. I'll change that.

Okay - for clarification, you want a few helper functions that both functions call? Like "getAddressSubstring," "getAddressHash," and "getNibble"? |
|
There should be one which converts an address (like the one you have right now) to the mixed-case version and that can be used in the verify function to compare with the supplied one. |
|
Changed and fixed. Let me know if there's anything else you see |

hash is a h256, i.e. it is binary data. I don't think we should search for hex digits there.

Yeh it should be done before on the input.

looksLikeAddress cat retur true for strings of length 39, 40 and 41, but getChecksumAddress asserts that the string is exactly 40 hex digits long.

Either we add another condition here and display the "correct" checksum if it is 40 characters or we just don't display it at all. It is worth displaying it?

We should display the correct checksum for 40 characters. Otherwise, we tell the user the correct length. I think a compiler should always supply an "easy fix" method, if it exists. It is in the user's responsibility to accept it or not.

What is the idea behind doing this for 41 hex digits?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I basically see the following reasons for a checksum failure:
- typing a wrong hex digit
- swapping two hex digits
- repeating a hex digit (or generally, adding a non-existing hex digit)
- leaving out a hex digit
Because of that, we should treat hex digit sequences of lengths 39, 40 and 41 as possible addresses.
