Over this and the next problem, you will work to build up a program that calculates central tendencies for two columns of data located in the covid19.csv file(originally from the CDC website).
For this problem, focus on calculating the kurtosis for the 1st Dose Allocations column. Kurtosis tells how heavily the tails of a distribution differ from the tails of a normal distribution. Once you have added the kurtosis action block, run the program. The following is the output you should expect to get.
Central Tendencies of the following Column: 1st Dose Allocations Mean: 62061.63265306125 Median: 38025.0 Standard Deviation: 81206.03894539685 Variance: 6594420761.20131 Kurtosis: 14.60309669876606

The previous solution has been added to this program so the only calculation you will add is the kurtosis block. Add the kurtosis action block after the select action block and before the output blocks. In the next problem, you will calculate the same central tendencies for the 2nd Dose Allocations column.
Central Tendencies of the following Column: 1st Dose Allocations
Mean: 62061.63265306125
Median: 38025.0
Standard Deviation: 81206.03894539685
Variance: 6594420761.20131
Kurtosis: 14.60309669876606
