Generate UUIDs

Description

Generate UUIDs using the uuid package. This is simply a thin wrapper around uuid::UUIDgenerate that matches the interface in the rest of the ids package.

Usage

uuid(n = 1, drop_hyphens = FALSE, use_time = NA)

Arguments

`n`	number of ids to return. If `NULL`, it instead returns the generating function
`drop_hyphens`	Drop the hyphens from the UUID?
`use_time`	Passed through to `UUIDgenerate` as `use.time`.
