| Subject: MD5 sums vs CRC Sum |

I was wondering what the actual processes that were used to generated both
the MD5 and CRC sum checks. I have been trying to make a type of file
verifying index for CSV files and came up with a system that multiplies the
bytes in the file with their position in the file. I had to make my own
STRING adder to be sure it could handle what ever values it all added up tom
though. But it seem to generate values something like MD5's system.
Your response appreciated.
