A closure is an inner function that has access to the variables in the outer (enclosing) function’s scope chain.
example:
var globalVar = "xyz";
(function outerFunc(outerArg) {
var outerVar = 'a';
(function innerFunc(innerArg) {
var innerVar = 'b';
console.log(
"outerArg = " + outerArg + "\n" +
"innerArg = " + innerArg + "\n" +
"outerVar = " + outerVar + "\n" +
"innerVar = " + innerVar + "\n" +
"globalVar = " + globalVar);
})(456);
})(123);
