        Answer

DNS stub resolver answer.

Instances of this class bundle up the result of a successful DNS resolution.

For convenience, the answer object implements much of the sequence protocol, forwarding to its ``rrset`` attribute. E.g. ``for a in answer`` is equivalent to ``for a in answer.rrset``. ``answer[i]`` is equivalent to ``answer.rrset[i]``, and ``answer[i:j]`` is equivalent to ``answer.rrset[i:j]``.

Note that CNAMEs or DNAMEs in the response may mean that answer RRset's name might not be the query name.
