r"""UUID objects (universally unique identifiers) according to RFC 4122.
3
This module provides immutable UUID objects (class UUID) and the functions
4
uuid1(), uuid3(), uuid4(), uuid5() for generating version 1, 3, 4, and 5
5
UUIDs as specified in RFC 4122.
7
If all you want is a unique ID, you should probably call uuid1() or uuid4().
8
Note that uuid1() may compromise privacy since it creates a UUID containing
9
the computer's network address. uuid4() creates a random UUID.

"""Instances of the UUID class represent UUIDs as specified in RFC 4122.
55
UUID objects are immutable, hashable, and usable as dictionary keys.
56
Converting a UUID to a string with str() yields something in the form
57
'12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789abc'. The UUID constructor accepts
58
five possible forms: a similar string of hexadecimal digits, or a tuple
59
of six integer fields (with 32-bit, 16-bit, 16-bit, 8-bit, 8-bit, and
60
48-bit values respectively) as an argument named 'fields', or a string
61
of 16 bytes (with all the integer fields in big-endian order) as an
62
argument named 'bytes', or a string of 16 bytes (with the first three
63
fields in little-endian order) as an argument named 'bytes_le', or a
64
single 128-bit integer as an argument named 'int'.
66
UUIDs have these read-only attributes:
68
bytes the UUID as a 16-byte string (containing the six
69
integer fields in big-endian byte order)
71
bytes_le the UUID as a 16-byte string (with time_low, time_mid,
72
and time_hi_version in little-endian byte order)
74
fields a tuple of the six integer fields of the UUID,
75
which are also available as six individual attributes
76
and two derived attributes:
78
time_low the first 32 bits of the UUID
79
time_mid the next 16 bits of the UUID
80
time_hi_version the next 16 bits of the UUID
81
clock_seq_hi_variant the next 8 bits of the UUID
82
clock_seq_low the next 8 bits of the UUID
83
node the last 48 bits of the UUID
85
time the 60-bit timestamp
86
clock_seq the 14-bit sequence number
88
hex the UUID as a 32-character hexadecimal string
90
int the UUID as a 128-bit integer
92
urn the UUID as a URN as specified in RFC 4122
94
variant the UUID variant (one of the constants RESERVED_NCS,
95
RFC_4122, RESERVED_MICROSOFT, or RESERVED_FUTURE)
97
version the UUID version number (1 through 5, meaningful only
98
when the variant is RFC_4122)
