public class Adler32 extends Checksum
The specification for Adler-32 may be found in RFC 1950. (ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification version 3.3).
From that document:
"ADLER32 (Adler-32 checksum) This contains a checksum value of the uncompressed data (excluding any dictionary data) computed according to Adler-32 algorithm. This algorithm is a 32-bit extension and improvement of the Fletcher algorithm, used in the ITU-T X.224 / ISO 8073 standard.
Adler-32 is composed of two sums accumulated per byte: s1
is the sum of all bytes, s2
is the sum of all s1 values. Both
sums are done modulo 65521
. s1
is initialized to 1
, s2
to zero. The Adler-32 checksum is
stored as s2*65536 + s1
in most- significant-byte first (network) order."
"8.2. The Adler-32 algorithm
The Adler-32 algorithm is much faster than the CRC32 algorithm yet still provides an extremely low probability of undetected errors.
The modulo on unsigned long
accumulators can be delayed for 5552
bytes, so the modulo operation time is negligible. If
the bytes are a
, b
, c
, the second sum is 3a + 2b + c + 3
, and so is position and order
sensitive, unlike the first sum, which is just a checksum. That 65521
is prime is important to avoid a possible large class of
two-byte errors that leave the check unchanged. (The Fletcher checksum uses 255
, which is not prime and which also makes the
Fletcher check insensitive to single byte changes 0 <-> 255
.)
The sum s1
is initialized to 1
instead of zero to make the length of the sequence part of s2
, so that the
length does not have to be checked separately. (Any sequence of zeroes has a Fletcher checksum of zero.)"
Changes for TotalCross:
Extends the abstract class Checksum
(which was originally an interface).
