A checksum is also known as a cryptogtaphic hash or an electronic signature. Python's built-in hashlib library has many tools to handle this. You have to be specific which algorithm was used to generate the checksum, eg. MD5, SHA256... https://docs.python.org/3/library/hashlib.html https://sololearn.com/compiler-playground/cNb6pRkA2Ty2/?ref=app
