What does closure mean?
A state of being closed or a result of a process that has been completed. In programming, a closure is a function that has access to its own scope and the scope of its outer functions.
Example
"The door was closed, and the room was quiet. In JavaScript, a function is a closure if it has access to its own variables and the variables of its outer functions."
