What "info at b1g dot de" wrote about MD5 is not completely correct. He wrote: "MD5 (32Byte) is more precise then CRC32 (4Byte)" It is correct that MD5 is "more precise" than CRC32, but it does not contain 32 bytes, but 16 bytes. (SHA-1: 20 bytes) Apart from that one cannot compare MD5 to CRC32 just by comparing its number of bits. The underlying algorithm is more important. -Tim ---- Server IP: 217.160.72.57 Probable Submitter: 84.132.147.209 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.crc32.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69054 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69054 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69054 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
