Case contract

Remove all whitespace and uppercase. Length must be 5..7. The inward code is the last three characters: digit, letter, letter, where neither letter may be one of C I K M O V. The outward code is the rest: alphanumeric, starting with a letter and containing at least one digit. Return "OUTWARD INWARD" or None.

Why this case matters

Codes whose outward part varies in length must be split from the right; mis-splitting sends deliveries to the wrong sorting district.

One recorded failure
