Involved Source Files Package crc32 implements the 32-bit cyclic redundancy check, or CRC-32, checksum. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check for information. Polynomials are represented in LSB-first form also known as reversed representation. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_cyclic_redundancy_checks#Reversed_representations_and_reciprocal_polynomials for information. crc32_amd64.go crc32_generic.go crc32_amd64.s
Code Examples package main import ( "fmt" "hash/crc32" ) func main() { // In this package, the CRC polynomial is represented in reversed notation, // or LSB-first representation. // // LSB-first representation is a hexadecimal number with n bits, in which the // most significant bit represents the coefficient of x⁰ and the least significant // bit represents the coefficient of xⁿ⁻¹ (the coefficient for xⁿ is implicit). // // For example, CRC32-Q, as defined by the following polynomial, // x³²+ x³¹+ x²⁴+ x²²+ x¹⁶+ x¹⁴+ x⁸+ x⁷+ x⁵+ x³+ x¹+ x⁰ // has the reversed notation 0b11010101100000101000001010000001, so the value // that should be passed to MakeTable is 0xD5828281. crc32q := crc32.MakeTable(0xD5828281) fmt.Printf("%08x\n", crc32.Checksum([]byte("Hello world"), crc32q)) }

/* sort exporteds by: | */
Table is a 256-word table representing the polynomial for efficient processing. func MakeTable(poly uint32) *Table func Checksum(data []byte, tab *Table) uint32 func New(tab *Table) hash.Hash32 func Update(crc uint32, tab *Table, p []byte) uint32 var IEEETable *Table
Package-Level Functions (total 27, in which 6 are exported)
Checksum returns the CRC-32 checksum of data using the polynomial represented by the Table.
ChecksumIEEE returns the CRC-32 checksum of data using the IEEE polynomial.
MakeTable returns a Table constructed from the specified polynomial. The contents of this Table must not be modified.
New creates a new hash.Hash32 computing the CRC-32 checksum using the polynomial represented by the Table. Its Sum method will lay the value out in big-endian byte order. The returned Hash32 also implements encoding.BinaryMarshaler and encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler to marshal and unmarshal the internal state of the hash.

Update returns the result of adding the bytes in p to the crc.
