Local variable or function: 

A variable or function declared inside a function is called local variable or function. This cannot be accessed by the out-side of the function. 

eg: 

main() 

int k; // local variable

cout<<sum(a,b); // local function 

}

Global variable or function: 

A variable or function declared out side of a function is called global variable or function. This can be accessed by any statements. 

eg:

int k; // global variable 

int sum(int a, int b); // global function

main() 

{

}
