   Note: You can change any of the 0-9/A-F characters to any other character in the range 0-9/A-F. It doesn't matter which character you change, but keep the case consistent. If the rest of the characters are lowercase, make it lowercase. if the rest of the characters are uppercase, make your new character uppercase.
