cksum — Write File Checksums and Sizes
Synopsis
/usr/bin/cksum [file...] Description

For each file processed successfully, cksum writes in the following format:
"%u %d %s\n" checksum, # of octets, pathname
If you do not specify a file operand, the path name and its leading space are omitted.
The CRC is based on the polynomial used for CRC error checking in the referenced Ethernet standard.
The encoding for the CRC checksum is defined by the generating polynomial:
G(x) = x32 + x26 + x23 + x22 + x16 + x12 + x11 + x10 + x8 + x7 + x5 + x4
+ x2 + x + 1 Mathematically, ...
