Do we need the "first" variable for this function?
Is there a reason we also need to include the "first" variable?
Eg - the following also appears to work, without adding "first" as a variable to pass to the function:
def calc_mean(*remainder):
mean = (sum(remainder)/len(remainder))
return mean

Hey Richard,
Thank you fo reaching out!
I don't see an immediate benefit of including the argument first. The simplification you suggest indeed works as expected.
Kind regards,
