\indexii{lambda}{form}
! \strong{Programmer's note:} a ``\code{def}'' form executed inside a
! function definition defines a local function that can be returned or
! passed around. The semantics of name resolution in the nested
! function will change in Python 2.2. See the appendix for a
! description of the new semantics.

\indexii{lambda}{form}
! \strong{Programmer's note:} Functions are first-class objects. A
! ``\code{def}'' form executed inside a function definition defines a
! local function that can be returned or passed around. Free variables
! used in the nested function can access the local variables of the
! function containing the def. See section \ref{naming} for details.
