Python exercise..... need help struggling

Question

# This function takes a start point and a list of remaining points, and returns the remaining point that is closest to the start point
# the list of remaining points must contain at least one point

def find_closest(start_point, remaining_points) :
# insert code here
return closest_point

# A test case for the find_closest function
find_closest((2.8, 9.8), [(0.3, 8.3), (4.4, 8.8), (6.8, 7.4), (4.1, 0.3), (4.5, 0.0), (7.6, 1.1), (5.0, 8.2), (7.7, 1.8), (3.4, 6.9), (4.8, 3.2), (0.7, 7.9)])
# should return (4.4, 8.8)

find_closest((2.8, 9.8), [(0.3, 8.3), (4.4, 8.8), (6.8, 7.4), (4.1, 0.3), (4.5, 0.0), (7.6, 1.1), (5.0, 8.2), (7.7, 1.8), (3.4, 6.9), (4.8, 3.2), (0.7, 7.9)]) == (4.4, 8.8)

What logic in your code dictates that (4.4, 8.8) should be returned?

Thanks Lothar
I noticed that the only activity posted by Sharon was to ask that question.

I suspect it was a homework assignment
