List of hash functions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 192.12.184.2 (talk) at 17:17, 21 January 2011 (Cryptographic hash functions: Skein has 256, 512, or 1024 bits of internal state, but the digest size is arbitrary). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a list of hash functions, including cyclic redundancy checks, checksum functions, and cryptographic hash functions.

Cyclic redundancy checks

Name Length Type
BSD checksum 16 bits CRC
checksum 32 bits CRC
crc16 16 bits CRC
crc32 32 bits CRC
crc32 mpeg2 32 bits CRC
crc64 64 bits CRC
SYSV checksum 16 bits CRC

Adler-32 is often classified as a CRC, but it uses a different algorithm.

Checksums

sum8 8 bits sum
sum16 16 bits sum
sum24 24 bits sum
sum32 32 bits sum
fletcher-4 4 bits sum
fletcher-8 8 bits sum
fletcher-16 16 bits sum
fletcher-32 32 bits sum
Adler-32 32 bits sum
xor8 8 bits sum
Luhn algorithm 4 bits sum
Verhoeff algorithm 4 bits sum
