perlpal has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, I've been trying to understand the "our" declaration and its "purpose" and am still confused about the same. I've gone through the tutorials but not really understood the concept. The definition that i've read is "our declares a variable as a package variable within its lexical scope". Please could i have a little more help here ? Thanks in advance.
