Please help me understand the mechanics of the following behavior.
>>> def d():
header = 'I am in front of '
def e(something):
print header + something
return e
>>> f = d()
>>> f('this')
I am in front of this
>>> del(d)
>>> f('this')
I am in front of this
The way I understand it, function d is an object, as is e. However I
don't quite grok the exact relationship between e and d. Is e
considered to be a subclass of 'd', so that it has access to it's
parent's __dict__ object, in order to access the value of 'header'? Or
is this persistence managed in a different fashion?
