Adler-32



Adler-32 is a checksum algorithm which was invented by Mark Adler. It is almost as reliable as a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check for protecting against accidental modification of data, such as distortions occurring during a transmission, but is significantly faster to calculate in software.
