Actually, parameter is used in the inner function, but it is defined in the outer function. Does Python support closures like that? I think I created this issue because the code crashed in my testing. It is important to also test non-existent files, i.e., when you try to download a template file that does not exist. Either it does not exist on the file system or it is not defined in the exercise config.yaml.
If the file does not exist the following message is shown
