Re: PL/pgSQL nested functions

>...why would you want to nest functions?

I am not nesting the functions myself,
but I am trying to convert existing PL/SQL code to PL/pgSQL.

From what I have seen, the nesting of functions is to modularize the code
and share global variables within the same procedure.

I don't know the answer to your question, but I'm curious - why would
you want to nest functions?
