I am wondering how I can access a function inside another function. I saw code like this:
>>> def make_adder(x):
def adder(y):
return x+y
return adder
>>> a = make_adder(5)
>>> a(10)
15
So, is there another way to call the adder
function? And my second question is why in the last line I call adder
not adder(...)
?
Good explanations are much appreciated.
