Bootstrapping a confidence interval
A useful tool for assessing the variability of some data is the bootstrap. In this exercise, you'll write your own bootstrapping function that can be used to return a bootstrapped confidence interval.
This function takes three parameters: a 2-D array of numbers (data), a list of percentiles to calculate (percentiles), and the number of boostrap iterations to use (n_boots). It uses the resample function to generate a bootstrap sample, and then repeats this many times to calculate the confidence interval.

- The function should loop over the number of bootstraps (given by the parameter
n_boots) and:- Take a random sample of the data, with replacement, and calculate the mean of this random sample
- Compute the percentiles of
bootstrap_meansand return it
