+
+* `data` {string|Buffer|TypedArray|DataView} When `data` is a string,
+  it will be encoded as UTF-8 before being used for computation.
+* `value` {integer} An optional starting value. It must be a 32-bit unsigned
+  integer. **Default:** `0`
+* Returns: {integer} A 32-bit unsigned integer containing the checksum.
+
+Computes a 32-bit [Cyclic Redundancy Check][] checksum of `data` using the
+Castagnoli polynomial (CRC-32C, [RFC 3720][] section 12.1). If `value` is
+specified, it is used as the starting value of the checksum, otherwise, 0 is
+used as the starting value. Passing the result of a previous call as `value`
+continues the checksum, as with [`zlib.crc32()`][].
+
+CRC-32C is a different checksum from the CRC-32 computed by
+[`zlib.crc32()`][]; the two produce different results for the same input.
+CRC-32C is used by protocols and formats such as iSCSI, SCTP, ext4, Btrfs,
+and the Snappy framing format, and has better error detection properties than
+CRC-32.
+
+The CRC algorithm is designed to compute checksums and to detect error
+in data transmission. It's not suitable for cryptographic authentication.
+
+Strings are encoded as UTF-8, in the same way as [`zlib.crc32()`][].
