In The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the answer to life, the universe, and everything is 42.

Let's explore more useful modules! The statistics module does statistical calculations:

import statistics data = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50] print(statistics.mean(data)) # 30 print(statistics.median(data)) # 30 print(statistics.stdev(data)) # 15.811...

The string module has useful constants:

import string print(string.ascii_lowercase) # abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz print(string.digits) # 0123456789
📋 Instructions
Find the answer to everything! Given these test scores: ```python scores = [85, 92, 78, 95, 88, 42, 90, 76, 84, 91] ``` Use the `statistics` module to print: ``` Mean: 82.1 Median: 86.5 Highest: 95 Lowest: 42 The answer to everything: 42 ``` Use `max()` and `min()` for highest/lowest.
Use statistics.mean(), statistics.median(), max(), min(). You've got this — take it step by step!
⚠️ Try solving it yourself first — you'll learn more!
import statistics

data = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
print(statistics.mean(data))    # 30
print(statistics.median(data))  # 30
print(statistics.stdev(data))   # 15.811...
