bookChallenge: Average Mark

Task

Swipe to show code editor

Let's calculate the average mark for the student. Each student has a different number of marks, so we don't know how many arguments will be passed to the function.

  1. Set the first positional argument as name in the average_mark function;
  2. For other arguments use *args;
  3. In the equation that counts the mark variable use args without *;
  4. In the print statement use name and mark variables.
