    local($x) saves away the old value of the global variable $x and
    assigns a new value for the duration of the subroutine which is
    visible in other functions called from that subroutine. This is done
    at run-time, so is called dynamic scoping. local() always affects
    global variables, also called package variables or dynamic variables.

    my($x) creates a new variable that is only visible in the current
    subroutine. This is done at compile-time, so it is called lexical or
    static scoping. my() always affects private variables, also called
    lexical variables or (improperly) static(ly scoped) variables.

    Take a look at the Perl-FAQ’s:
