Android- Generating an EAN13 Barcode

The European Article Number, or EAN, is a standard European barcode which is designed to encode the identification of a product and its manufacturer and is a superset of the American standard, UPC. The format of the EAN13 barcode encodes a string of 12 characters followed by a 13th character which acts as the control number and is calculated through a formula based on the first 12 characters.
