// you can also pass in a prefix and/or suffix
const pre_su_guid = GUIDGenerator("prefix", "suffix");
console.log("pre_su_guid:", pre_su_guid);
//pre_su_guid: prefix-17e8e42f-0354-48bb-a886-90c376d207bb-suffix

const uuid = UUIDGenerator();
console.log("uuid:",  uuid);
// uuid: 1e6129ba-2200-4fe8-9f77-1e862279d5b7

const pre_su_uuid = UUIDGenerator("prefix", "suffix");
console.log("pre_su_uuid:", pre_su_uuid);
// pre_su_uuid: prefix-fad2ece1-72f8-4ff2-89ec-efa344c3d9fc-suffix
