One Day One GNU/Linux Command ============================= sum -- Compute and Check .
Summary: `sum' computes a 16-Bit checksum for each given file(s)/stdin. By default, it computes checksums using an algorithm compatible with BSD `sum' and prints file sizes in units of 1024-byte blocks. Example: $ sum file -- Print checksum and block counts. $ sum file1 file2 -- Print checksum, block counts and filename. $ sum -r file -- Default. Use BSD sum algorithm (1KB/Block). $ sum -s file -- Use System V sum algorithm (512 bytes/Block).
