javascript Nested functions

nested就是闭包(Closures)

1.The inner function can be accessed only from statements in the outer function
2.The inner function forms a closure: the inner function can use the arguments and variables of the outer function, while the outer function cannot use the arguments and variables of the inner function.

function outside(x) {
  function inside(y) {
    return x + y;
  }
  return inside;
}
fn_inside = outside(3); // Think of it like: give me a function that adds 3 to whatever you give
                        // it
result = fn_inside(5); // returns 8

result1 = outside(3)(5); // returns 8

1.Notice how x is preserved when inside is returned. A closure must preserve the arguments and variables in all scopes it references
2.Since each call provides potentially different arguments, a new closure is created for each call to outside
3.The memory can be freed only when the returned inside is no longer accessible.
4.This is not different from storing references in other objects, but is often less obvious because one does not set the references directly and cannot inspect them.
