*clock_seq* is given, it is used as the sequence number; otherwise a random
14-bit sequence number is chosen.

.. index:: single: uuid1


.. function:: uuid3(namespace, name)

Generate a UUID based on the MD5 hash of a namespace identifier (which is a
UUID) and a name (which is a :class:`bytes` object or a string
that will be encoded using UTF-8).

.. index:: single: uuid3


.. function:: uuid4()

Generate a random UUID.

.. index:: single: uuid4


.. function:: uuid5(namespace, name)

Generate a UUID based on the SHA-1 hash of a namespace identifier (which is a
UUID) and a name (which is a :class:`bytes` object or a string
that will be encoded using UTF-8).

.. index:: single: uuid5
.. function:: uuid8(a=None, b=None, c=None)

Generate a pseudo-random UUID according to
:rfc:`RFC 9562, §5.8 <9562#section-5.8>`.

When specified, the parameters *a*, *b* and *c* are expected to be
positive integers of 48, 12 and 62 bits respectively. If they exceed
their expected bit count, only their least significant bits are kept;
non-specified arguments are substituted for a pseudo-random integer of
appropriate size.

Remove ``.. index::`` directives from the :mod:`uuid` module documentation. These directives
previously created entries in the general index for :func:`~uuid.getnode` as well as the
:func:`~uuid.uuid1`, :func:`~uuid.uuid3`, :func:`~uuid.uuid4`, :func:`~uuid.uuid5`, and
:func:`~uuid.uuid8` constructor functions.
