cik
====
A `CIK` type for working with validated (syntax only)
[Central Index Keys (CIKs)](https://www.sec.gov/page/edgar-glossary#cik) as defined in the
[U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC)](https://www.sec.gov)
[Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system (EDGAR)](https://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml) documentation.
A CIK is a number of up to 10 digits length. They are sometimes rendered as strings with or without leading zeros, and
sometimes are represented as integers of a sufficient number of bits to represent a 10-digit number (typically 64 bits
because the maximum CIK value is 9,999,999,999 and the maximum value of a signed 32-bit integer is only 2,147,483,64;
and the maximum value of an unsigned 32-bit integer is still to low at 4,294,967,295).
As of 2022-05-29 the "Company Facts" data set's minimum CIK value is 1,750 and the maximum is 1,923,807. See
the "Bulk data" section on the SEC's
[EDGAR Application Programming Interfaces](https://www.sec.gov/edgar/sec-api-documentation) page for more information on
this data set. Such values fit comfortably in 7 decimal digits or 32 bits (signed or unsigned), so you might encounter
CIKs stored in values of less than 64 bits.
Nonetheless, this library uses 64-bit values to ensure full conformance with the CIK definition of up to 10 decimal
digits.
This crate is part of the Financial Identifiers series:
* [CIK](https://crates.io/crates/cik): Central Index Key (SEC EDGAR)
* [CUSIP](https://crates.io/crates/cusip): Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures (ANSI X9.6-2020)
* [ISIN](https://crates.io/crates/isin): International Securities Identification Number (ISO 6166:2021)
* [LEI](https://crates.io/crates/lei): Legal Entity Identifier (ISO 17442:2020)
## Usage
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
cik = "0.1"
```
## Example
```rust
use cik;
let cik_string = "320193";
match cik::parse(cik_string) {
Ok(cik) => {
println!("Parsed CIK: {}", cik.to_string()); // "320193"
println!(" Integer value: {}", cik.value()); // 320193
}
Err(err) => panic!("Unable to parse CIK {}: {}", cik_string, err),
}
```
