- expression: The string to mask.

- uc_mask: Controls the mask character for upper case letters.
- lc_mask: Controls the mask character for lower case letters.
- num_mask: Controls the mask character for numbers.
Examples
{% code title="MASK_SHOW_LAST_N example" %}
SELECT MASK_SHOW_LAST_N('ab12-ABab-1234')
-- xxnn-XXxx-1324{% endcode %}
{% code title="MASK_SHOW_LAST_N example containing optional value." %}
SELECT MASK_SHOW_LAST_N('ab12-ABab-1234', 2)
-- xxnn-XXxx-nn34{% endcode %}
{% code title="MASK_SHOW_LAST_N example containing optional arguments." %}
SELECT MASK_SHOW_LAST_N('Aa12-ABab-1234', 4, 'U', 'u', '#')
-- Uu##-UUuu-1234{% endcode %}
By default, upper case letters are converted to X, lower case letters are converted to x, and numbers are converted to n. You can override the characters used in the mask by supplying optional arguments. The second argument controls the mask character for upper case letters, the third argument for lower case letters, and the fourth argument for numbers.
