+
+/**
+ * Nonowning view to a sequence of contiguous elements.
+ *
+ * Spans encapsulate a pointer to a sequence of contiguous elements and its size
+ * into a single object. Span can replace the traditional pair of pointer and
+ * size arguments passed as array definitions in function calls.
+ *
+ * @par Operations
+ *
+ * Span objects can be copied and assigned like regular value types with the help
+ * of the copy constructor or the copy assignment (=) operator.
+ *
+ * You can retrieve elements of the object with the subscript ([]) operator. You can access the
+ * pointer to the first element of the sequence viewed with data().
+ * The function size() returns the number of elements in the sequence, and
+ * empty() informs whether there is any element in the sequence.
+ *
+ * You can slice Span from the beginning of the sequence (first()), from the end
+ * of the sequence (last()) or from an arbitrary point of the sequence (subspan()).
+ *
+ * @par Size encoding
+ *
+ * The size of the sequence can be encoded in the type itself or in the value of
+ * the instance with the help of the template parameter Extent:
+ *
+ *   - Span<uint8_t, 6>: Span over a sequence of 6 elements.
+ *   - Span<uint8_t>: Span over an arbitrary long sequence.
+ *
+ * When the size is encoded in the type itself, it is guaranteed that the Span
+ * view is a valid sequence (not empty() and not NULL) - unless Extent equals 0.
+ * The type system also prevents automatic conversion from Span of different
+ * sizes. Finally, the Span object is internally represented as a single pointer.
+ *
+ * When the size of the sequence viewed is encoded in the Span value, Span
+ * instances can view an empty sequence. The function empty() helps client code
+ * decide whether Span is viewing valid content or not.
+ *
+ * @par Example
+ *
+ * - Encoding fixed size array: Array values in parameter decays automatically
+ * to pointer, which leaves room for subtitle bugs:
+ *
+ * @code
+    typedef uint8_t mac_address_t[6];
+    void process_mac(mac_address_t);
+
+    // compile just fine
+    uint8_t *invalid_value = NULL;
+    process_mac(invalid_value);
+
+
+    // correct way
+    typedef Span<uint8_t, 6> mac_address_t;
+    void process_mac(mac_address_t);
+
+    // compilation error
+    uint8_t *invalid_value = NULL;
+    process_mac(invalid_value);
+
+    // compilation ok
+    uint8_t valid_value[6];
+    process_mac(valid_value);
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * - Arbitrary buffer: When dealing with multiple buffers, it becomes painful to
+ * keep track of every buffer size and pointer.
+ *
+ * @code
+    const uint8_t options_tag[OPTIONS_TAG_SIZE];
