### A Simple Example
```python
# --- sample data from a linear SCM:

import numpy as np
from scipy import linalg
from CausalDisco.analytics import var_sortability, r2_sortability

d = 10
W = np.diag(np.ones(d-1), 1)
X = np.random.randn(10000, d).dot(linalg.inv(np.eye(d) - W))
X_std = (X - np.mean(X, axis=0))/np.std(X, axis=0)

# --- run analytics and print results:

from CausalDisco.analytics import (
    var_sortability,
    r2_sortability,
    snr_sortability
)

print(
    f'True\n{W}\n'
    f'var-sortability={var_sortability(X, W):.2f}\n'
    f'R^2-sortability={r2_sortability(X, W):.2f}\n'
    f'SNR-sortability={snr_sortability(X, W):.2f}'
)

# --- run baselines and print results:

from CausalDisco.baselines import (
    random_sort_regress,
    var_sort_regress,
    r2_sort_regress
)

print(
    f'True\n{W}\n'
    '--- randomRegress ---\n'
    f'Recovered:\n{1.0*(random_sort_regress(X)!=0)}\n'
    f'Recovered standardized:\n{1.0*(random_sort_regress(X_std)!=0)}\n'
    '--- varSortnRegress ---\n'
    f'Recovered:\n{1.0*(var_sort_regress(X)!=0)}\n'
    f'Recovered standardized:\n{1.0*(var_sort_regress(X_std)!=0)}\n'
    '--- r2SortnRegress ---\n'
    f'Recovered:\n{1.0*(r2_sort_regress(X)!=0)}\n'
    f'Recovered standardized:\n{1.0*(r2_sort_regress(X_std)!=0)}\n'
)
