+/*
+package uuid implements Universally Unique Identifiers according to the
+standard outlined in RFC 4122.
+
+See here for more information: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4122.html
+
+Generation of versions 1 and 2 (the MAC address-based versions) are not yet
+implemented.
+
+The UUIDs are textually represented and read in the following string format:
+`00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000000`
+
+Outside of string representations, they are represented in memory by a 128-bit structure.
