Global variables are tricky and it's better to minimize them, but they are sometimes useful, or they can give some extra performance, etc.
Global functions (not called methods if they aren't inside a function) are very useful. You have to learn that there is more than OOP in the life of a programmer. Not all my programs contain classes.
