Ada doesn't have anything like static variables. To get the same
functionality, you will have to declare the variable globally 
somewhere visible to that routine. 

Example:

package body My_Package is

   Number : Integer;

   procedure My_Procedure is
   begin
      ...series of statements...
   end My_Procedure;

end My_Package;
