To understand the advantages, start with the slice-by-2 case. We wish to compute a CRC two bytes (16 bits) at a time, but the standard table-based approach would require an inconveniently large 65536-entry table. As mentioned in § Generating the lookup table, CRC tables have the property that table[i xor j] = table[i] xor table[j].
The CRC and associated polynomial typically have a name of the form CRC-n-XXX as in the table below. The simplest error-detection system, the parity bit , is in fact a 1-bit CRC: it uses the generator polynomial x + 1 (two terms), [ 5 ] and has the name CRC-1.

The handbook was originally published in 1928 by the Chemical Rubber Company (now CRC Press) as a supplement (Mathematical Tables) to the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics. Beginning with the 10th edition (1956), it was published as CRC Standard Mathematical Tables and kept this title up to the 29th edition (1991).
These inversions are extremely common but not universally performed, even in the case of the CRC-32 or CRC-16-CCITT polynomials. They are almost always included when sending variable-length messages, but often omitted when communicating fixed-length messages, as the problem of added zero bits is less likely to arise.

While it may be common to refer to them as "the CRC code" or "the CRC checksum" or "the CRC" in informal discussion, these terms are incorrect. This confusion probably arises because the high-order bits in the code word are identical to the bits in the data word, so people tend to forget (or not understand) that the code word is an indivisible ...
In this respect, the Fletcher checksum is not different from other checksum and CRC algorithms and needs no special explanation. An ordering problem that is easy to envision occurs when the data word is transferred byte-by-byte between a big-endian system and a little-endian system and the Fletcher-32 checksum is computed.
