Nested Functions in Python: Scope and Accessibility
This topic will not only help understand the nonlocal scope but also closures and decorators.
Functions are first-class citizens in Python. They can be:
- Passed as arguments to functions;
- Returned from functions;
- Modified;
- Assigned to variables.
Let's explore some examples:
def outer_function(...):
...
def inner_function(...):
...
return ...
In programming, a nested function is a function that is defined inside another function.
123456def count_percent(num1, num2, num3): def inner(num): return num * 30 / 100 return (inner(num1), inner(num2), inner(num3)) print(count_percent(700, 300, 1000))
Useful if you want to perform a complex task multiple times within another function without repeating code.
