Display the scheduled-function object and its repeat interval for each currently scheduled scheduled function:

  > (dolist (scheduled-function (all-scheduled-functions))
     (format t "~&;; ~s ~s~%"
             scheduled-function
             (scheduled-function-repeat-interval scheduled-function)))
  ;; #<scheduled-function quitting-time [17:00:00]> 86400
  nil
  >

Define a function to be used as a scheduled function that randomly sets whether to reschedule itself (and at what interval):

  (defun complex-function (scheduled-function)
    (let ((interval (random 100)))
      (setf (scheduled-function-repeat-interval scheduled-function)
            (if (plusp interval) 
                ;; repeat 1-99 seconds from now:
                interval
                ;; don't repeat 1% of the time:
                nil)))
    (do-some-stuff))
