## What it is
Pingouin is an open-source Python 3 statistical package built on Pandas and NumPy that provides simple yet exhaustive statistical tests. It returns rich outputs (effect sizes, confidence intervals, Bayes Factors) from common tests like t-tests and ANOVAs, which low-level libraries like SciPy omit.

## Use cases
- run t-tests and anovas in python
- compute effect sizes like cohen's d
- calculate bayes factors for statistical tests
- perform repeated measures anova on a dataframe
- compute partial and robust correlations
- do power analysis for an experiment
- run pairwise post-hoc tests with p-value correction
- compute intraclass correlation for reliability

## When to choose
- you want detailed statistical test output (effect size, CI, power, Bayes Factor) from a single function call
- you work with Pandas DataFrames and want stats functions that integrate with them
- you need ANOVAs, post-hoc tests, or repeated-measures correlations in Python
- you find scipy.stats too low-level and statsmodels too complex

## When to avoid
- you need advanced modeling like GLMs, time-series analysis, or R-style formula syntax (use statsmodels)
- you only need raw T- and p-values with minimal dependencies (use scipy.stats)
- your project requires a permissive license (Pingouin is GPL-3.0)
