Suppose you are an investor with $100 on January 1, 2005. Write a Python program that calculates the total return (including dividends) if you invested this money into the S&P 500 and held it through to January 1, 2025. If you could erase any continuous 11 calendar day period from this history in order to get the best returns, what would your new total return be? Include the dollar values in your comments.
