First set of two letters/numbers is inconsequential, second set is for your red value, third set of two is the green, fourth set is blue. The scale ranges from 0-9 and then a-f, meaning that 0 is the lowest value, f is the highest, and a is just slightly higher in value as compared to a 9. Really, the easiest way is to find something that lets you pick a color swatch and then generates the code, but you may want to mess around for a while to see what colors you can come up with on your own.
