Python: JobID counter
<p>Whats the best to make a job ID counter in python? For example if a Job ID startd of with value of "0" and everytime someone ran the script the counter went up by one?</p>

<p>E.G.</p>

<pre><code>X = 0

Perform_some_process

x +=1
</code></pre>

<p>Now the value of x will be one, but if i ran the script again x will be equal to one again and not two. How would make so when someone ran the script for the second time x is equal to two? and so forth for the future runs.</p>
