NameError while calling another function inside a function

Question

Why am I getting a name error for pays_bill?

error: NameError: name 'pays_bill' is not defined

class Customer:
    def __init__(self,total):
        self.billamt=total

    def pays_bill(self,amount):
        print("maaz  pays bill amount of Rs.",amount)

    def purchases(self):
        discount=(.05*self.billamt)
        amount=(self.billamt-discount)
        pays_bill(self,amount)

x=Customer(1000)
x.purchases()

You need to use `self.pays_bill(...)` – TemporalWolf Jun 14 '19 at 18:42 — TemporalWolf, Jun 14 '19 at 18:42

This will work fine

class Customer:
    def __init__(self,total):
        self.billamt=total

    def pays_bill(self,amount):
        print("maaz  pays bill amount of Rs.",amount)

    def purchases(self):
        discount=(.05*self.billamt)
        amount=(self.billamt-discount)
        self.pays_bill(amount)

x=Customer(1000)
x.purchases()
