That is an interesting requirement. If the thing to be given to the
prepared statement on execution N is the thing returned by the select
in execution N-1, then what is to be given to the prepared statement
when N==1?
Since you are already using a database, I'd use the database to store
what needs to be stored between executions. That way you have to worry
less about what happens in case of crashes.
But most of all I'd seriously reconsider if this is really the best way
to go about solving whatever it is that I was trying to solve.
