Description
### Is there an existing issue for this?
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
### Suggestion
In the ElectionGuard Design Specification (v2.1, and also applicable to version 1.0), within the Appendix section under **Toy Parameters for Testing Purpose**, there is an incorrect hexadecimal representation of the 32-bit prime number (p)
**Current text:**
p = 4214179679 = 0xFB2B 475F,
### Possible Implementation
The hexadecimal value for the 32-bit prime number p is written as 0xFB2B475F. The correct hex value should be 0xFB2**F** 475F (note the **F** instead of **B**)
Corrected text:
p = 4214179679 = 0xFB2**F** 475F,
