CRC-32 is a family of 32-bit hash functions used to detect accidental data corruption.
The term CRC-32 by itself usually means the CRC-32/ISO-HDLC (IEEE) algorithm.
Refer to the CRC article for more information.

Specific algorithms
Selected CRC-32 algorithms are listed here. The names are from the CRC RevEng Catalogue.
CRC-32/ISO-HDLC
Also referred to as ISO 3309, ITU-T V.42, CRC-32-IEEE, and many other names.
The CRC of ASCII "123456789" is 0xcbf43926.
Used by ZIP, PNG, Gzip, ARJ, etc.
CRC-32/CKSUM
Used by the traditional Unix/POSIX "cksum" utility.
The CRC of ASCII "123456789" is 0x377a6011.
Others
Other members of the CRC-32 family include CRC-32Q, CRC-32C (Castagnoli), and CRC-32K (Koopman).
