[PD] can a [clone] instance determine the total number of clones?

[William Huston]

Is there a way for a clone instance to determine the total number of clones?

Because often the behavior of a clone depends on its relative position
within a chain of instances.

"I am instance 12 of 100, therefore, I should behave like so...."

I find myself passing in the number of total clones as a parameter.
I would like to avoid this if possible.

Thanks,
BH
