In this challenge, scale the features of the **penguins dataset** (already encoded and without missing values) using `StandardScaler`.


import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv('https://codefinity-content-media.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/a65bbc96-309e-4df9-a790-a1eb8c815a1c/penguins_imputed_encoded.csv')

print(df)

Here is a little reminder of the `StandardScaler` class.

        test_case.assertTrue(True, success_message)
    else:
        test_case._testMethodName = failure_message
        test_case.fail(failure_message)
