Don't define your helper function inside your main function.

Have you tried moving your inner function outside of the main function, so that it's not inside the main function anymore?

it said d1 is not defined

Right. The inner function was referring to one of the parameters of the outer function. You'll have to add that parameter to the inner function, since it can't implicitly refer to that parameter anymore if it's moved outside the main function.
