Center and scale with StandardScaler()

We've loaded the same dataset named data. Now your goal will be to center and scale them with StandardScaler from sklearn library.

Libraries pandas, numpy, seaborn and matplotlib.pyplot have been loaded as pd, np, sns and plt respectively. We have also imported the StandardScaler.

Feel free to explore the dataset in the console.
