OUTPUT
Enter data to be transmitted: 1001101
Enter the Generating polynomial: 1011
----------------------------------------
Data padded with n-1 zeros : 1001101000
----------------------------------------
CRC or Check value is : 101
----------------------------------------
Final data to be sent : 1001101101
----------------------------------------
Enter the received data: 1001101101
-----------------------------
Data received: 1001101101
No error detected
