Question: Show how the Fletcher algorithm (Figure 10.18) attaches weights to the data items when calculating the checksum. Figure 10.18 Notes Start L: Left 8-bit checksum
Figure 10.18
![Notes Start L: Left 8-bit checksum R: Right 8-bit checksum R=L= 0 D;: Next 8-bit data item More data? [yes] L = (L+ R) m](https://dsd5zvtm8ll6.cloudfront.net/si.question.images/images/question_images/1544/6/3/5/9305c11461ab87601544618488443.jpg)
Notes Start L: Left 8-bit checksum R: Right 8-bit checksum R=L= 0 D;: Next 8-bit data item More data? [yes] L = (L+ R) mod 256 R = (R + Dj) mod 256 [no] 16-bit Checksum = L x 256 + R R checksum Stop
