Function Name: mean() Parameters: sample a list of integer values Return Value: None - Description: You are probably familiar with the arithmetic mean of a sample – the kind of mean where you sum the values of the sample (perhaps grades or test scores) and you divide by the number of values. It turns out there are several kinds of mean: arithmetic mean, geometric mean, harmonic mean, and plenty more! Your task is to write a function that computes arithmetic mean and the geometric mean of a sample. To compute the geometric mean of a sample, you first take product of all the values, and then you take the n-th root of the product, where n is the number of values you have (see the picture below). n x1 x2 • • xn Test Cases: >>> mean([1, 2, 3]) AM: 2.0 GM: 1.81712059283 >>> mean([4, 4, 2, 10, 13, 57, 68, 70, 99, 105]) AM: 43.2 GM: 20.2740243268
