Translation guide
CRC is an abbreviation for Cyclic Redundancy Check, a type of error-detecting code used in digital networks and storage. In Japanese, it is almost always referred to by the English acronym CRC, pronounced in katakana. This guide covers how to talk about CRC in technical contexts.
Referring to the error-detecting code itself, in computing or engineering contexts.
The English acronym is used directly in Japanese technical contexts. It is pronounced シーアールシー.
CRCはデータの誤りを検出するために使われます。
CRC is used to detect errors in data.
Please calculate the CRC of this file.
This is the full Japanese translation of Cyclic Redundancy Check. It is used in formal documentation or when explaining the concept to non-experts.
巡回冗長検査（CRC）は広く使われている誤り検出方式です。

Referring to the actual numeric value produced by a CRC algorithm.
Means 'CRC value'. Commonly used when discussing the result of a CRC calculation.

Referring to the process or algorithm of CRC.
Means 'CRC method' or 'CRC scheme'. Used when discussing the algorithm itself.
