/**
* This method takes 81 trytes, which could be an address or a seed, generates the [checksum](https://docs.iota.org/docs/getting-started/0.1/clients/checksums) and appends it to the trytes.
*
* To generate a checksum that is less than 9 trytes long, make sure to set the `isAddress` argument to false.
*
* ## Related methods
*
* To generate an address, use the [`getNewAddress()`]{@link #module_core.getNewAddress} method.

* @param {string} input - 81 trytes to which to append the checksum
*
* @param {number} [checksumLength=9] - Length of the checksum to generate
*
* @param {boolean} [isAddress=true] - Whether the input is an address
*
* @example
* ```js
* let addressWithChecksum = Checksum.addChecksum('ADDRESS...');
* ```
*
* @returns {string} The original trytes with an appended checksum.
*
* @throws {errors.INVALID_ADDRESS}: Make sure that the given address is 90 trytes long.
* @throws {errors.INVALID_TRYTES}: Make sure that the `input` argument contains only [trytes](https://docs.iota.org/docs/getting-started/0.1/introduction/ternary)
* @throws {errors.INVALID_CHECKSUM_LENGTH}: Make sure that the `checksumLength` argument is a number greater than or equal to 3. If the `isAddress` argument is set to true, make sure that the `checksumLength` argument is 9.
