What is a benefit of using checksums over parity checks for error detection?

Checksums are simpler to calculate.

Checksums can detect multiple-bit errors more effectively.

Checksums require less computational resources.

Checksums can be used for encryption.

Checksums are generally more effective at detecting errors than parity checks.
