      type: string

      choices:
        - loose
        - strict
        - semver
        - semantic
        - pep440
      default: loose
  notes:
    - C(loose) - This type corresponds to the Python C(distutils.version.LooseVersion) class. All version formats are valid for this type. The rules for comparison are simple and predictable, but may not always give expected results.
    - C(strict) - This type corresponds to the Python C(distutils.version.StrictVersion) class. A version number consists of two or three dot-separated numeric components, with an optional "pre-release" tag on the end. The pre-release tag consists of a single letter C(a) or C(b) followed by a number.  If the numeric components of two version numbers are equal, then one with a pre-release tag will always be deemed earlier (lesser) than one without.
    - C(semver)/C(semantic) - This type implements the L(Semantic Version,https://semver.org) scheme for version comparison.
    - C(pep440) - This type implements the Python L(PEP-440,https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/) versioning rules for version comparison. Added in version 2.14.
