"""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.

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

111 the 'fields' argument, or a single 128-bit integer as the 'int'
112 argument. When a string of hex digits is given, curly braces,
113 hyphens, and a URN prefix are all optional. For example, these
114 expressions all yield the same UUID:
