advantages of nested functions

Hi ! :)

I am wondering about what the advantages are of using nested functions other than that the workspace of parent function will be available fo rnested functions. If I had written a long function, would it have taken longer time to run that function than if I had nested som functions within a parent function..?

Another advantage is that it allows you to store function parameters in handles, see,
