Why doesn't C have nested functions?  

well, Nested functions means function within a function.

#include<stdio.h>

int add(int a,int b)
{
int c=3;
int d=a+b;

int addToC(int c, int d )
{
printf("This is addToC.....n");
return(c+d);
}
return(addToC(c,d));

}

i nt main()
{
printf(" Addition %d n" ,add(1,2));
return 0;

}

Hope it will help you out.

C is top-down approach. So that, first of all, we should define what are all the functions, variables and header files used in that program. So we cant use nested funcions in C.
Thats it. What would the point of nested functions be? So that a certain function could only be called from its parent function? That seems highly unnecessary. Good design practices make this unnecessary.
