Additional arguments
Let's use additional arguments in the .apply() method!
Your task is to create two new columns in scores:
meanis the row-wise mean value of the math score, reading score and writing scorerankdefines how high themeanscore is:'high'if the mean value \(> 90\)'medium'if the mean value \(> 60\) but \(\leq\) 90'low'if the mean value \(\leq 60\)
To accomplish this task, you'll need to define the function rank that, given a series, returns a list with two values: the mean of the series and a string defined by the aforementioned rule.
The module numpy is already imported for you as np.
