// JavaScript variables belong to one of the following scopes: global or local(function). 
// Basically, any variable defined outside of a function is a global variable. Variables 
// defined inside of a function are scoped narrowly to that function, and any other 
// functions defined within the scope of that function (explicit use of the var keyword assumed).
