How do I find what number is 12h06f?

Question

I've found such numbers time and time again in verilog and digital logic exercises, but I don't know how I'm supposed to know what number this is or how to write it as 12'b in verilog code.

Can someone explain them to me?

Answer 1

There is a tutorial document with examples that is a good reference on the subject.

The document can be found here:
