Check Contract Address Checksum

I need to check the last 4 characters of the contract address to verify against the documentation.

=RIGHT(A2, 4)

How it works: The RIGHT function extracts a specified number of characters from the end of a text string. In this scenario, `A2` refers to the cell containing the full contract address, and `4` specifies that you want to extract the last four characters. This allows for quick and efficient verification of the contract address checksum against documented values.

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Enter your full contract addresses into column A, starting from cell A2.

2

In cell B2, type the formula `=RIGHT(A2, 4)`.

3

Press Enter to display the last 4 characters of the contract address from A2.

4

Drag the fill handle (the small square at the bottom-right of cell B2) down to apply the formula to all other contract addresses in column A.

5

Compare the extracted checksums in column B with your documentation to verify.
