  Passing variables between iterations

How can I pass a variable between frames rendering iterations in POV?

I'm running an 1800 frame animation, 30 frames per second, and I want a
different random number every 6 seconds (180 frames).

I created an array of 10 random numbers, and then used the clock to select
the number from the array. This works, but is sloppy and not truely random!

Is there a way to pass a value from one frame to the next?
