Detailed explanation-1: -An ISBN is essentially a product identifier used by publishers, booksellers, libraries, internet retailers and other supply chain participants for ordering, listing, sales records and stock control purposes. The ISBN identifies the registrant as well as the specific title, edition and format.
Detailed explanation-2: -ISBNs are represented by a 13-digit code which allows publishers, retailers, and other suppliers to directly identify an individual product. Identifiers become particularly useful when maintaining stock, listing new releases, placing an order, or tracking sales figures.
Detailed explanation-3: -International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is a unique numeric commercial book identifier. Before year 2007 ISBNs were 10-digit long. After that year ISBNs extended to 13 digits. In both ISBN-10 and ISBN-13 standards, the last digit is the check digit, for error detection.
