>From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_variable : Variables local to subroutines (local variables) are usually created and destroyed within the subroutine itself (so-called automatic variables). Some languages, however, (e.g., the C programming language) allow subroutines to retain the value of variables between calls, so that the function can preserve its state if necessary. For example, a static variable can record the number of times its subroutine has been executed. Doing so is otherwise possible using global variables or external storage, like a file on disk.
