No. You're not supposed to work around it, you are supposed to use variables starting with @ if you want multiple values in one variable.

Thanks for the clarification. I misused the term random in this case. The value of $A is a guess for a variable in a set of equations (which I didn't include here), uniformly distributed between 0 and A_max. The error term is "included" in the posted script as part of a comment.
