About Adler-32

Adler-32 is a 32-bit checksum created by Mark Adler, the author of zlib. It was designed to be faster to compute than CRC32 while still giving adequate error detection for many cases.

How it works: Adler-32 combines two running sums modulo 65521 (the largest prime below 2^16) — one sums the bytes, the other sums the running totals. The two values are combined into a 32-bit checksum.

Adler-32 is used in the zlib and DEFLATE compression formats (e.g. inside PNG and gzip). Being non-cryptographic, Adler-32 is only for error detection — not security. For very short data, Adler-32 is less reliable than CRC32.

FAQ

Adler-32 or CRC32?

Adler-32 is usually faster to compute, but CRC32 generally provides better error detection, especially on short data. Choose based on your speed-vs-reliability needs.

How long is a Adler-32 hash?

A Adler-32 hash is 32-bit long (8 karakter heksadesimal / 8 hexadecimal characters).

Is my data sent to a server?

No. The Adler-32 hash is computed entirely in your browser. The text you enter never leaves your device.
