C++: IBAN

The International Bank Account Number (IBAN) is an internationally agreed means of identifying bank accounts across national borders with a reduced risk of propagating transcription errors.
The IBAN consists of up to 34 alphanumeric characters: first the two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code, then two check digits, and finally a country-specific Basic Bank Account Number (BBAN).
The check digits enable a sanity check of the bank account number to confirm its integrity even before submitting a transaction.

The task here is to validate the following fictitious IBAN: GB82 WEST 1234 5698 7654 32.

Details of the algorithm can be found on the Wikipedia page.

#include <string>

#include <algorithm>
#include <cctype>
using namespace boost::algorithm ;
