 if ( $Validator->IsNot_Valid( '6464') { say $Validator->Errstr() }
 # IsNot_Valid returns Errstr on failure. 
 # So the preceding and following are the same.
 my $badone = $Validator->IsNot_Valid( '999') ;
 if ( $badone ) { say "$badone' } ; 
 
 if ( $Validator->Is_Valid( '646-SG7-6464' ) { say "good" }
