def html_tag( tag ):

    def body( msg ):
        print( "hi! :", msg )

        def inn_body( msg1 ):
            print( "hola: ", msg1 )
     return inn_body

    return body
h1 = html_tag( "h1" )
h1( "varshini" )
h1( "subiksha" )
/// How do i access the inn_body()?
def html_tag(tag):

    def body(msg):
        print("hi! :", msg)

        def inn_body(msg1):
            print("hola: ", msg1)

        return inn_body

    return body


h1 = html_tag("h1")
h1("varshini")
h1("subiksha")('inn_body')
Output:
hi! : varshini hi! : subiksha hola: inn_body
