//! Encoding and decoding hex strings.
//!
//! For most cases, you can simply use the `decode()`, `encode()` and
//! `encode_upper()` functions. If you need a bit more control, use the traits
//! `ToHex` and `FromHex` instead.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! extern crate hex;
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     let hex_string = hex::encode("Hello world!");
//!     println!("{}", hex_string); // Prints '48656c6c6f20776f726c6421'
//! }
//! ```
