If you have large project, involving multiple source files (i. e. *.h,*.c). Then we can have global static variables. So, that they are accessible to all functions in the same file only. Outside the file, global static variables are not visible.

there is no theory in programming because you need to be sure, you need to write everthing and test it against all odds

global variable are not static, the exist all through the existent of the code, unlike static only exist in its defined function
