**skimpy** is a light weight tool that provides summary statistics about variables in **pandas** or **Polars** data frames within the console or your interactive Python window.

Think of it as a super-charged version of **pandas**' `df.describe()`.
[You can find the documentation here](https://aeturrell.github.io/skimpy/).

## Quickstart

`skim` a **pandas** or **polars** dataframe and produce summary statistics within the console
using:

```python
from skimpy import skim

skim(df)
```

where `df` is a **pandas** or **polars** dataframe.

If you need to a dataset to try *skimpy* out on, you can use the built-in test **Pandas** data frame:


```python
from skimpy import generate_test_data, skim

df = generate_test_data()
skim(df)
```

It is recommended that you set your datatypes before using **skimpy** (for example converting any text columns to pandas string datatype), as this will produce richer statistical summaries. However, the `skim()` function will try and guess what the datatypes of your columns are.

## Requirements

You can find a full list of requirements in the [pyproject.toml](https://github.com/aeturrell/skimpy/blob/main/pyproject.toml) file.

You can try this package out right now in your browser using this
[Google Colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/gist/aeturrell/7bf183c559dc1d15ab7e7aaac39ea0ed/skimpy_demo.ipynb)
(requires a Google account). Note that the Google Colab notebook uses the latest package released on PyPI (rather than the development release).

## Installation

You can install the latest release of *skimpy* via
[pip](https://pip.pypa.io/) from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/):

```bash
$ pip install skimpy
```

To install the development version from git, use:

```bash
$ pip install git+https://github.com/aeturrell/skimpy.git
```

For development, see [contributing](contributing.qmd).

## License

Distributed under the terms of the [MIT license](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT), *skimpy* is free and open source software.

## Issues

If you encounter any problems, please [file an issue](https://github.com/aeturrell/skimpy/issues) along with a detailed description.

## Credits

This project was generated from [\@cjolowicz](https://github.com/cjolowicz)\'s [Hypermodern Python Cookiecutter](https://github.com/cjolowicz/cookiecutter-hypermodern-python) template.

**skimpy** was inspired by the R package [**skimr**](https://docs.ropensci.org/skimr/articles/skimr.html) and by exploratory Python packages including [**ydata_profiling**](https://docs.profiling.ydata.ai) and [**dataprep**](https://dataprep.ai/), from which the `clean_columns` function comes.

This package would not have been possible without the [**Rich**](https://github.com/Textualize/rich) package.

The package is built with [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/), while the documentation is built with [Quarto](https://quarto.org/) and [Quartodoc](https://github.com/machow/quartodoc) (a Python package). Tests are run with [nox](https://nox.thea.codes/en/stable/).

Using **skimpy** in your paper? Let us know by raising an issue beginning with "citation" and we'll add it to this page.
