// Package pkg define CUE builtin packages.
//
// The CUE core packages are different, but closely mimic the Go core packages.
// The types, values, and functions are defined as their Go equivalence and
// mapped to CUE types.
//
// Beware that some packages are defined in lesser-precision types than are
// typically used in CUE and thus may lead to loss of precision.
//
// All packages in these subdirectories are hermetic. That is, the results
// do not change based on environment conditions. That is:
//
// - no reading of files contents
// - no querying of the file system of any kind
// - no communication on the network
// - no information about the type of environment
// - only reproduceable random generators
//
// Hermetic configurations allow for fast and advanced analysis that otherwise
// would not be possible or practical. The cue "cmd" command can be used to
// mix in non-hermetic influences into configurations.
