(Who asked me the same qn off list a while ago:-) The functional way of doing it of course is to maintain a list of all the ones you've generated this session (or at least a count of the same) If the function took a sequence of strings (of uuids) and returned a sequence extended by one new one, then to generate three of the beasts you wouldn't do f(),f(),f() with side effects, you'd do f(f(f(()))) which is so much more wholesome...
