We have a few rules on this site. In particular:
(6) Do not post classroom or homework problems.

I suspected that you might be breaking this rule when you posted your previous question on Fibonacci numbers. Now I'm sure of it.

I will say that a crc program is a good choice for a class project. You should be able to find plenty of info on crc if you do some research. It is an not obscure algorithm.

no, it's not homework
have you never heard of challenge homepages like slyfx.com? oh, and btw, even if it was a homework, i didn't ask for the solution, i just wanted good info to read. anyway, that's a stupid rule, since the issue of most importance is learning. stupid homeworks are just peace of cake to post here bah.

you should add another rule:

do not jump to conclusions about other people without confirming it.

cksum does not give me crc32
