Determining Credit Card vs. Debit or Check Card

There are many functions available that implement credit card identification
and number validation -- meaning you can decide, based on the number, if a
card is a MasterCard or Visa and if the number passes the Luhn Formula or
MOD 10 algorithm for the checksum. What I'm looking for however is the
scheme to determine is a card is a check or debit card versus a credit card.

Anyone know if this can be done by examining the account number pattern?

Thanks,

-Bill

I have been doing that since 1990

There are rules, there is even some sort of primary validation system,
but there is a lot to be said for a visual reprensation
