== Size of example string ==
strlen("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog") is 43.
Due to modern processors having specific hardware engines used to calculate CRC's that are 32 bit wide
at a time, such as the cortex M3 arm series, it would be better to have a test string that
is wholly divisible by 4. The current test string has 43 characters. adding a full stop to this
would give a strlen() of 44.
Also CRC-16 engines ake 16 bits at a time, and would not be compatible with the example string chosen.
