Cyclic Redundancy Check

A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an error-detecting code used to ensure the accuracy of data transmission over networks or storage systems. It works by calculating a short check value, known as the CRC, based on the data being transmitted and then appending it to the message. When the message reaches its destination, the CRC is recalculated, and if the newly calculated CRC matches the original one, it indicates that the data arrived intact.

Sample sentences:

  1. Before transferring the file, the system performed a cyclic redundancy check to ensure its integrity.
  2. The network utilizes the cyclic redundancy check algorithm to detect any transmission errors.
  3. The hard drive employs a cyclic redundancy check to verify the accuracy of stored data.
