---------- Post updated at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous update was at 05:39 PM ----------
I also noticed that in some cases it jumps letters like in the sample below
it's calling DOG000161 "e" instead of "a". And DOG000162 "b" is really supposed to be "a". Why do you suppose this is?
Are there more than 26 occurrences of a single input value?
If so, what "letter" do you want to assign when an input value appears more than 26 times?
Do all of the values that aren't assigned trailing letters appear more than once in your input?
Do any of the values that aren't assigned trailing letters appear more than once but less than 27 times?

DD(1) General Commands Manual DD(1)
NAME
dd - disk dumper
SYNOPSIS
dd [option = value] ...
EXAMPLES
dd if=/dev/fd0 of=/dev/fd1
# Copy disk 0 to disk 1
dd if=x of=y bs=1w skip=4
# Copy x to y, skipping 4 words
dd if=x of=y count=3
# Copy three 512-byte blocks
DESCRIPTION
This command is intended for copying partial files. The block size, skip count, and number of blocks to copy can be specified. The
options are:
if = file - Input file (default is stdin)
of = file - Output file (default is standard output)
ibs = n - Input block size (default 512 bytes)
obs = n - Output block size (default is 512 bytes)
bs = n - Block size; sets ibs and obs (default is 512 bytes)
skip = n - Skip n input blocks before reading
seek = n - Skip n output blocks before writing
count = n - Copy only n input blocks
conv = lcase - Convert upper case letters to lower case
conv = ucase - Convert lower case letters to upper case
conv = swab - Swap every pair of bytes
conv = noerror- Ignore errors and just keep going
conv = silent- Suppress statistics (Minix specific flag)
Where sizes are expected, they are in bytes. However, the letters w, b, or k may be appended to the number to indicate words (2 bytes),
blocks (512 bytes), or K (1024 bytes), respectively. When dd is finished, it reports the number of full and partial blocks read and writ-
ten.
