11//! Traits to represent an address within an address space.
12//!
13//! Two traits are defined to represent an address within an address space:
14//! - [`AddressValue`](trait.AddressValue.html): stores the raw value of an address. Typically
15//! `u32`,`u64` or `usize` is used to store the raw value. But pointers, such as `*u8`, can't be used
16//! because they don't implement the [`Add`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ops/trait.Add.html) and
17//! [`Sub`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ops/trait.Sub.html) traits.
18//! - [Address](trait.Address.html): encapsulates an [`AddressValue`](trait.AddressValue.html)
19//! object and defines methods to access and manipulate it.

21/// Simple helper trait used to store a raw address value.
