(to be continued)
.. function:: bytes_at(addr, size)
Capture memory at the given address and size as bytes object. As bytes
object is immutable, memory is actually duplicated and copied into
bytes object, so if memory contents change later, created object
retains original value.
.. function:: bytearray_at(addr, size)
Capture memory at the given address and size as bytearray object.
Unlike bytes_at() function above, memory is captured by reference,
so it can be both written too, and you will access current value
at the given memory address.
