"""
Your task is as follows:
- read the provided Excel file
- find and return the min, max and average values for the COAST region
- find and return the time value for the min and max entries
- the time values should be returned as Python tuples

Please see the test function for the expected return format

    ### example on how you can get the data
    #sheet_data = [[sheet.cell_value(r, col) for col in range(sheet.ncols)] for r in range(sheet.nrows)]

    ### other useful methods:
    # print "\nROWS, COLUMNS, and CELLS:"
    # print "Number of rows in the sheet:", 
    # print sheet.nrows
    # print "Type of data in cell (row 3, col 2):", 
    # print sheet.cell_type(3, 2)
    # print "Value in cell (row 3, col 2):", 
    # print sheet.cell_value(3, 2)
    # print "Get a slice of values in column 3, from rows 1-3:"
    # print sheet.col_values(3, start_rowx=1, end_rowx=4)

    # print "\nDATES:"
    # print "Type of data in cell (row 1, col 0):", 
    # print sheet.cell_type(1, 0)
    # exceltime = sheet.cell_value(1, 0)
    # print "Time in Excel format:",
    # print exceltime
    # print "Convert time to a Python datetime tuple, from the Excel float:",
    # print xlrd.xldate_as_tuple(exceltime, 0)
