Should I drain my Macbook pro to calibrate the battery?

I read mixed reviews. I'm not a Mac person I have one for work.

Are you talking about this process?

You only need to do that if you replace the battery in your MacBook, which you can't do on modern MacBooks. Original batteries come pre-calibrated.
