I have been using python for some days and found about the uuid module and it has different ways to generate uuids.

uuid.uuid1()
uuid.uuid3()
uuid.uuid4()
uuid.uuid5()

what is the difference between these and what should I use to generate unique string?

Please read the documentation. It is really clear on the difference. I short: they use different algorithms to generate the UUIDs.
