How do I get numpy to generate two mean values?

I have been asked to write a function to calculate the mean by reading in a CSV file using numpy. This is as far as I could get after playing with it for 4 hours.
import numpy as np
def calc_stats(data):
data = np.loadtxt("data.csv", delimiter=",")
mean = np.mean(data)
rounded = np.around(mean, decimals=1)
return rounded
The auto-grader tells me that my output is incorrect as shown below.
Testing the data.csv file from the example. We called your function like this:
>>> calc_stats('data.csv')
Your function returned:
11.095833333333333
when it was meant to return:
(11.1, 11.4)
(11.1, 11.4)
I read the numpy manual on the mean function and I did not find the information I am looking for.

Have you checked the examples in the docs? The first one without an axis argument, the second and the third ones with an axis argument?

yes I checked. I can't get the code to output(11.1, 11.4)

As there appears to be more than one answer, I'm guessing you have two fields on each line, separated by a comma, and you should maybe total each column of values...
