local is a leftover from pre-Perl5 versions. It is used on package
(global) variables and does not define them it only affects the value of
the variable.
our defines package variables so they can be used in Perl5 when
strictures are enforced ("use strict".)
my defines and creates variables that are local to the current scope and
are not related to any package.
