.Fn cryb_adler32_hash "const void *data" "size_t len"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn cryb_adler32_hash
function returns a 32-bit checksum of the
.Va len
first bytes of the object pointed to by
.Va data
using the Adler-32 algorithm described in RFC 1950.
.Pp
Unlike the Pearson hash implemented by
.Fn cryb_pearson_hash
or cryptographic message digests such as the SHA family, these
checksums are suitable for error detection.
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
The
.In cryb/hash.h
header provides macros which allows these functions to be referred to
without their
.Dq Li cryb_
prefix.
