The following specifications should be met for your code solution:
• The specified function name must be used
• The function will take a single argument called filename. This will allow the
function to be called for different data files of this same format.
• The function should read in the CsV file and unpack the information contained
into variables with an appropriate type.
o The column headings (e.g. Count of Stolen Animals, etc.) should be
stored in a list, with one element per column heading
o The number of stolen animals should be returned as a list of integers
o The other column data should be returned as lists of strings. One list
per column
The function should return the processed data with the following order for the
return arguments:
o The column headings list
o The data columns: col1, col2, ..., col6

Thankyou this was very helpful :) I also need to write functions that find the average_stolen using single argument called data and also write a function called get_borough_frequency where 2 arguments called borough and number and this should create a dictionary of the unique boroughs as the key and the corresponding value of total number of animals stolen in that borough . Any help would be great , thanks
