This document tells you how to use Tax-Calculator, an open-source federal income and payroll tax simulation model, in Python scripts that you can run on your own computer. Note that these recipes -require either (1) Tax-Calculator release 0.23.4 or higher running on -Python 3.6, or (2) Tax-Calculator release 0.24.0 or higher running on -Python 3.7. For other ways of using Tax-Calculator, see the +require Tax-Calculator release 1.0.0 or higher running on Python 3.6 +or Python 3.7. For other ways of using Tax-Calculator, see the user guide, which this Cookbook assumes you have read.
