Question

Edit:
How can I return a value for a parent function?

function returningFn() {
    function otherFn() {
        var value = 123;
        return value; //For returningFn     
    }
}

I would like returningFn to return the value… How do I do this??? I can’t get it to work…

Answer 1

function returningFn(returnInfo) {
    function otherFn() {
        var value = 123;
        return value;  //return the value
    }
    return otherFn();  //call the function which has its own return statement
}   
console.log( returningFn() );
