.. class:: UUID([hex[, bytes[, bytes_le[, fields[, int[, version]]]]]])
Create a UUID from either a string of 32 hexadecimal digits, a string of 16
- bytes as the *bytes* argument, a string of 16 bytes in little-endian order as
- the *bytes_le* argument, a tuple of six integers (32-bit *time_low*, 16-bit
- *time_mid*, 16-bit *time_hi_version*, 8-bit *clock_seq_hi_variant*, 8-bit
- *clock_seq_low*, 48-bit *node*) as the *fields* argument, or a single 128-bit
- integer as the *int* argument. When a string of hex digits is given, curly
- braces, hyphens, and a URN prefix are all optional. For example, these
+ bytes in big-endian order as the *bytes* argument, a string of 16 bytes in
+ little-endian order as the *bytes_le* argument, a tuple of six integers
+ (32-bit *time_low*, 16-bit *time_mid*, 16-bit *time_hi_version*,
+ 8-bit *clock_seq_hi_variant*, 8-bit *clock_seq_low*, 48-bit *node*) as the
+ *fields* argument, or a single 128-bit integer as the *int* argument.
+ When a string of hex digits is given, curly braces, hyphens,
+ and a URN prefix are all optional. For example, these
expressions all yield the same UUID::
UUID('{12345678-1234-5678-1234-567812345678}')
