# sunlm

**sunlm** is a lightweight, social-science–friendly Python package for SPSS-like **OLS regression** and **ANOVA / ANCOVA**.  
It is designed for researchers in communication, psychology, marketing, and related social sciences who want **clear, interpretable statistical output** without complex statistical coding.

sunlm emphasizes:
- R-style formula syntax
- SPSS-equivalent ANOVA (Type III SS, sum coding)
- Standardized coefficients and semi-partial R²
- Clean, APA-style tables
- Simple, top-level API (`sunlm.reg`, `sunlm.aov`)
