I'd be very grateful if someone could tell me why, in the following code snippet, L1 is OK but L2 throws an error "error: symbol AFh undefined"

segment .data

L1 db 9Fh
L2 db AFh

A symbol name may not begin with a decimal digit. A number *must* begin with a decimal digit.

L2 db 0AFh

... not a problem if you use 0xAF instead of the "h" notation.

Best,
