Python [decorators](https://realpython.com/primer-on-python-decorators/) are another popular and convenient use case for inner functions, especially for closures.
**Decorators** are higher-order functions that take a callable (function, method, class) as an argument and return another callable.

Here's my own [[Project Kickoff]] checklist:
1. Capture my current thinking on the project.
2. Review folders (or tags) that might contain relevant notes.
3. Search for related terms across all folders.
4. Move (or tag) relevant notes to the project folder.
5. Create an outline of collected notes and plan the project.

If you’re mathematically inclined,
then you could use the [pigeonhole principle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigeonhole_principle)
to describe hash collisions more formally:
> Given *m* items and *n* containers,
> if *m* > *n*,
> then there’s at least one container
> with more than one item.
In this context,
items are a potentially infinite number of values
that you feed into the hash function,
while containers are their hash values
assigned from a finite pool.
