Interestingly, I can find implementations for the Internet Checksum in almost every language except C#. Does anyone have an implementation to share?

Remember, the internet protocol specifies that:

"The checksum field is the 16 bit one's complement of the one's complement sum of all 16 bit words in the header. For purposes of computing the checksum, the value of the checksum field is zero."

More explanation can be found from Dr. Math.

There are some efficiency pointers available, but that's not really a large concern for me at this point.

Please include your tests! (Edit: Valid comment regarding testing someone else's code - but I am going off of the protocol and don't have test vectors of my own and would rather unit test it than put into production to see if it matches what is currently being used! ;-)

Edit: Here are some unit tests that I came up with. They test an extension method which iterates through the entire byte collection. Please comment if you find fault in the tests.

[TestMethod()]
public void InternetChecksum_SimplestValidValue_ShouldMatch()
{
    IEnumerable<byte> value = new byte[1]; // should work for any-length array of zeros
    ushort expected = 0xFFFF;

    ushort actual = value.InternetChecksum();

    Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
}

[TestMethod()]
public void InternetChecksum_ValidSingleByteExtreme_ShouldMatch()
{
    IEnumerable<byte> value = new byte[]{0xFF};
    ushort expected = 0xFF;

    ushort actual = value.InternetChecksum();

    Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
}

[TestMethod()]
public void InternetChecksum_ValidMultiByteExtrema_ShouldMatch()
{
    IEnumerable<byte> value = new byte[] { 0x00, 0xFF };
    ushort expected = 0xFF00;

    ushort actual = value.InternetChecksum();

    Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
}
