Confused on Session Register

Hi All I was trying to write a PHP session and was confused whether to use session_register or $_SESSION. Anyone know when to use either of these? (Or an interpretation of the following line)? Use of $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS with PHP 4.0.6 or less) is recommended for security and code readablity. With $_SESSION or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS, there is no need to use session_register()/session_unregister()/session_is_registered() functions. Users can access session variable like a normal variable.
