 In English, convert the address to hex, but if the `i`th digit is a letter (ie. it's one of `abcdef`) print it in uppercase if the `4*i`th bit of the hash of the address is 1 otherwise print it in lowercase.
 
+# Implementation
+
+In javascript:
+
+```js
+const createKeccakHash = require('keccak')
+
+function toChecksumAddress (address) {
+  address = address.toLowerCase().replace('0x','');
+  var hash = createKeccakHash('keccak256').update(address).digest('hex')
+  var ret = '0x'
+
+  for (var i = 0; i < address.length; i++) {
+    if (parseInt(hash[i], 16) >= 8) {
+      ret += address[i].toUpperCase()
+    } else {
+      ret += address[i]
+    }
+  }
+
+  return ret
+}
+```
+
+```
+> toChecksumAddress('0xfb6916095ca1df60bb79ce92ce3ea74c37c5d359')
+'0xfB6916095ca1df60bB79Ce92cE3Ea74c37c5d359'
+```
+
+Note that the input to the Keccak256 hash is the lowercase hexadecimal string (i.e. the hex address encoded as ASCII):
+
+```
+    var hash = createKeccakHash('keccak256').update(Buffer.from(address.toLowerCase(), 'ascii')).digest()
+```

+# Rationale
+
 Benefits:
 - Backwards compatible with many hex parsers that accept mixed case, allowing it to be easily introduced over time
 - Keeps the length at 40 characters
