This is a simple (trivial) monad transformer for supplying unique integer values to an algorithm.

1 MonadUnique

{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fglasgow-exts #-}
 
module MonadUnique
        ( UniqueT,
          Unique,
          MonadUnique,
          fresh,
          evalUniqueT,
          evalUnique )
    where
 
import Control.Monad
import Control.Monad.State
import Control.Monad.Identity
 
newtype UniqueT m a = UniqueT (StateT Integer m a)
    deriving (Functor, Monad, MonadTrans, MonadIO)
 
newtype Unique a = Unique (UniqueT Identity a)
    deriving (Functor, Monad, MonadUnique)
 
class Monad m => MonadUnique m where
    fresh :: m Integer
 
instance (Monad m) => MonadUnique (UniqueT m) where
    fresh = UniqueT $ do
                n <- get
                put (succ n)
                return n
 
evalUniqueT (UniqueT s) = evalStateT s 0
evalUnique (Unique s) = runIdentity (evalUniqueT s)

2 STSupply

There is also a simple way to get the same functionality in the ST Monad. Here's a quick module to construct infinite supplies of unique values in the ST monad: 

module STSupply (Unique, createSupply) where
 
import Control.Monad.ST
import Data.STRef
 
newtype Unique = Unique Integer deriving (Eq, Ord)
 
createSupply :: ST s (ST s Unique)
createSupply = do
    v <- newSTRef $ Unique 0
    return $ do
        Unique x <- readSTRef v
        writeSTRef v $ Unique (x+1)
        return $ Unique x

A test example: 

import Control.Monad.ST
import STSupply
 
main = print test1
 
test1 = runST supplyTest
    where supplyTest = do
              fresh <- createSupply
              x <- fresh
              y <- fresh
              return (x == x, x == y, x < y)
