Python Local Scope
A variable is only available from inside the region it is created. This is called scope.
Local Scope
A variable created inside a function belongs to the local scope of that function, and can only be used inside that function.
Example
A variable created inside a function is available inside that function:
def myfunc():
x = 300
print(x)
myfunc()

Function Inside Function
As explained in the example above, the variable x is not available outside the function,
but it is available for any function inside the function:
Example
The local variable can be accessed from a function within the function:
def myfunc():
x = 300
def myinnerfunc():
print(x)
myinnerfunc()
myfunc()
