UUIDs are 128-bit numbers that are for most practical purposes unique, without depending on a central registration authority for ensuring their uniqueness. Although the probability of UUID duplication exists, it is negligible. According to Wikipedia, "*for there to be a one in a billion chance of duplication, 103 trillion version 4 UUIDs must be generated.*" UUID is an Internet Engineering Task Force standard described by RFC 4122.

||||
The library proposed on this paper is a lite one: it enables developers to generate UUIDs based on the operation system facilities, serialize and deserialize UUIDs to and frmo strings, validate UUIDs and other common ensuing operations.

### Array constructors

### Iterators constructors
|

|
||||
The conversion constructor from `std::array<uint8_t, 16>` enables the construction of a `uuid` from an array of bytes.
|
||||
The conversion constructor that takes two forward iterators constructs an `uuid` with the content of the range \[first, last). It requires the range to have exactly 16 elements, otherwise the result is a nil `uuid`. This constructor follows the conventions of other containers in the standard library.
