All you have to do in this exercise is write a good comment that explains what local variables are. You should also give an example of a function and what the local variables are, and what the scope is of the variable.
Local variables are variables that are declared within a function and are only accessible within that function. For example, in the following function, the local variables are 'x' and 'y', and the scope of these variables is limited to the function itself:
def add_numbers(x, y):
result = x + y
return result
In this example, 'x' and 'y' are local variables that are only accessible within the add_numbers() function. The scope of these variables is limited to the function itself, meaning they cannot be accessed outside of the function.
