# Tax-Brain
Tax-Brain is a Python package that wraps multiple economic models in one easy
to use interface.
## Overview
Tax-Brain makes it easy for users to simulate the US tax system by providing a
single interface for multiple tax models. Currently, Tax-Brain interfaces with
[Tax-Calculator](https://github.com/PSLmodels/Tax-Calculator) and
[Behavioral-Responses](https://github.com/PSLmodels/Behavioral-Responses).
Additional models will be added in the near future to expand Tax-Brain's
capabilities to include modeling business taxation and running dynamic
general equilibrium simulations.
To learn more about how Tax-Brain works, see [the Tax-Brain documentation](http://taxbrain.pslmodels.org).
## Disclaimer
Tax-brain and its underlying models are constantly being improved upon. For
that reason, the results output by Tax-Brain may differ over time. It is
strongly suggested that the user make note of which version of Tax-Brain,
they are using when reporting their results.
## Installing Tax-Brain
You can install the latest official release from Conda using this command:
`conda install -c pslmodels taxbrain`.
Similarly, you can update to the latest release of Tax-Brain using
`conda update -c pslmodels taxbrain`.
Tax-Brain is currently not available on PyPI.
## Using Tax-Brain
View the sample code in [example.py]([example.py](http://taxbrain.pslmodels.org/content/examples/example.html)) to see how to run Tax-Brain.
Or, see [the user guide](http://taxbrain.pslmodels.org/content/usage.html)
for a more detailed walk through.
## Citing Tax-Brain
Please cite the source of your analysis as "Tax-Brain release #.#.#, author's
calculations." If you would like to link to Tax-Brain, please use
`https://github.com/PSLmodels/Tax-Brain`. It is also strongly suggested that
you describe your input data and note the versions of the underlying models.
## Tax-Brain Interface
In addition to its Python API, Tax-Brain also powers a web application on
[Compute Studio](https://compute.studio/). That application can be found
[here](https://compute.studio/PSLmodels/Tax-Brain/). The code behind the
GUI can be found in this repository in the [cs-config](https://github.com/PSLmodels/Tax-Brain/tree/master/cs-config)
directory.

## Releasing New Versions of Tax-Brain
To release new versions of Tax-Brain, use the [Package-Builder](https://github.com/PSLmodels/Package-Builder)
tool. Before using the tool, be sure to add the conda-forge channel to your
conda config by using `conda config --add channels conda-forge`.
