Understanding closures in Python

[EnglishRain]

Very cool... I hope i remember this when the need arises

[s.g.]

So does it create inner function every time we call the adder_5 function ??

Instead of this, y not simply and directly define two input variables in the outer layer so there is only one level and no closure? In this example, we can define adder(value, base)
