+### Submitting Exercises
+
+Note that, when trying to submit an exercise, make sure you're exercise file you're submitting is in the `exercism/csharp/<exerciseName>` directory.
+
+For example, if you're submitting `bob.cs` for the Bob exercise, the submit command would be something like `exercism submit <path_to_exercism_dir>/csharp/bob/bob.cs`.

+# Hexadecimal
+
+Write a program that will convert a hexadecimal number, represented as a string (e.g. "10af8c"), to its decimal equivalent using first principles (i.e. no, you may not use built-in or external libraries to accomplish the conversion).
+
+On the web we use hexadecimal to represent colors, e.g. green: 008000,
+teal: 008080, navy: 000080).
+
+The program should handle invalid hexadecimal strings.
+
+To run the tests simply run the command `go test` in the exercise directory.
+
+If the test suite contains benchmarks, you can run these with the `-bench`
+flag:
+
+    go test -bench .
+
+For more detailed info about the Go track see the [help
+page](http://exercism.io/languages/go).
