Or what about just using the function object directly? def myFun(): myFun.x += 1 return myFun.x myFun.x = 0 for test in range(10): assert myFun()+1 == myFun() assert myFun()*2+3 == myFun()+myFun() assert range(myFun(), myFun()+9) == [myFun() for x in range(10)] assert range(myFun()+2, myFun()+11) == [myFun() for x in range(10)] :)) couldn't-help-feeding-the-troll-ly-y'rs.
