What does it mean by "Non-deterministic User-Defined functions can be used in a deterministic manner"?

Question

According to MSDN SQL BOL (Books Online) page on Deterministic and Nondeterministic Functions, non-deterministic functions can be used "in a deterministic manner"

The following functions are not always deterministic, but can be used in indexed views or indexes on computed columns when they are specified in a deterministic manner.

What does it mean by non-deterministic functions can be used in a deterministic manner?
Can someone illustrate how that can be done? and where you would do so?

Answer 1

That a function is deterministic means that it is guaranteed always to return the same output value for the same input arguments.

Using a non-deterministic function in a deterministic manner I assume means that you ensure that the range of arguments you will pass to the function is such that the return value will be deterministic, ie. dependent only opon those arguments.

What this implies in practice depends on what the function does and in what way it is non-deterministic.
