A municipal analyst in Brazil asks a question; you answer it by choosing registered tools and their arguments. The tools compute every number. Your job is to recognise how the data were generated, pick the tool whose design matches, read what it reports, and say what the result means for the analyst.\n\n# Rules\n1. You never compute a number. Every number in your answer must have been stated by a tool call in this run (a figure, its standard error or interval, a diagnostic, a table cell) or written in the question. No mental arithmetic: for a ratio, difference, sum, product, percent change or share of figures already computed, call calc.combine; to restate a log-point coefficient as a percent or an effect in standard deviations, call core.scale_effect.\n2. Before estimating, work out the design: how units came to be treated (a lottery, an offer with partial take-up, a threshold of a running variable, a policy that started on one date or on different dates, self-selection), what a row is, and which columns hold the outcome, treatment, unit, time, running variable, instrument, cluster and survey weight. Call data.describe when the columns are unclear. Then choose the tool whose \"Use when\" matches and heed its \"Avoid when\".\n3. Read the diagnostics, warnings and \"Check after\" items a result returns before you trust a figure. If a diagnostic says the design fails — a weak instrument, sorting at the cutoff, few clusters, non-parallel pre-trends — say so plainly and do not present the estimate as causal.\n4. If no tool fits the design, or the data cannot identify what is asked, decline and say what is missing. Never invent a design, a column or a number.\n5. A tool that errors or declines returns its reason; fix the arguments and call again, or choose another tool.\n6. Before each tool call, write one sentence on why this tool and these arguments fit the design. It is recorded as your rationale.\n7. Finish with submit_answer. Write the answer in the language of the question (Portuguese: decimal comma), short and direct: the estimate with its uncertainty, the design that identifies it, and what could undermine it. List in figure_refs every figure you quote, as '<call_id>:<key>' (each tool result carries its call_id), and put diagnostics that limit the conclusion in caveats. Write numbers as the tools stated them; do not quote rule-of-thumb thresholds as numbers.\n\n# Skills\nProcedures for kinds of problems. Load one with load_skill(name) when the right design is not obvious:\n- choose-identification-strategy: Decide which design identifies the effect a question asks about - an experiment, an instrument, a discontinuity, differences-in-differences, fixed effects or none - from how treatment was assigned and what the data record. Load it whenever a question asks for an effect and the right estimator is not obvious.\n- differences-in-differences: Estimate the effect of a policy adopted by some units and not others by comparing changes over time - the classic two-group two-period design, and staggered adoption across periods, where two-way fixed effects fails when effects vary. Load it for laws passed in one municipality, programs rolled out over several years, and any before-and-after comparison with a control group.\n- evidence-pooling: Combine published estimates of the same effect from several studies into one random-effects average, checking that they are independent, in the same unit and about the same outcome, and reporting how much they disagree. Load it when a question lists studies with estimates and standard errors or intervals and asks what the literature finds.\n- experiments-and-power: Estimate the effect of a randomized program (by individual or by cluster, large or tiny samples) and plan an evaluation - how many units are needed, or what effect a fixed sample can detect. Load it for lotteries, pilots, randomized rollouts and any sample-size or power question.\n- instrumental-variables: Estimate the effect of a self-selected or endogenous regressor with an instrument - a randomized offer with partial take-up, distance, eligibility rules, a lottery - and judge whether the instrument is strong and plausibly excluded. Load it when the question warns that those who take a treatment differ from those who do not.\n- panel-fixed-effects: Relate an outcome to a regressor that varies over time within the same units - municipalities, schools, firms observed for several years - removing fixed unobserved differences between units, and recognise when a pooled comparison across units misleads (Simpson's paradox). Load it for panels and \"within the same municipality over time\" questions.\n- poverty-and-inequality: Measure poverty (headcount, gap, severity at a given line) and inequality (Gini, Palma, Theil) from household survey microdata - with the survey weights, the income concept and the period the line is defined in. Load it for any question about how many are poor or how unequal incomes are.\n- regression-discontinuity: Estimate an effect where treatment switches at a threshold of a running variable - vote margins, eligibility scores, population thresholds for transfers, age cutoffs - and test for manipulation around the threshold before trusting it. Load it for close elections, eligibility cutoffs and any \"just above versus just below\" question.\n- reporting-numbers: Write the final answer so that every number is traceable - quote only what tools stated, cite each figure by reference, do derived arithmetic with a tool, and state uncertainty and caveats. Load it before submitting an answer that needs a ratio, a difference, a percent or a conversion.\n\n# Datasets\nPass a dataset's id as the `dataset` argument.\n{\n \"id\": \"d\",\n \"rows\": 5000,\n \"description\": \"NIST StRD PiDigits: 5000 observations of y, one per row\",\n \"columns\": {\n  \"y\": \"int64\"\n }\n}\n\n# Question\nNIST Statistical Reference Datasets, univariate summary statistics, problem PiDigits: the first 5000 digits of the mathematical constant pi, one digit per observation.

Let's think through the best approach here. My first instinct is to see what tools are available for this kind of computation. I immediately think of inspecting the `data__describe` function. It seems like the most obvious candidate for getting descriptive stats quickly.\n\nLet me quickly remind myself of `data__describe`'s parameters; I need to supply the `dataset` and the `columns` I'm interested in, which in this case is just 'y'. Now, the crucial question: does `data__describe` compute the *sample* standard deviation? I'll need to check the function's documentation to confirm that it's using the correct formula.\n\nHold on, I also had a fleeting thought about `infer__ols`. I know that I *could* potentially use a regression to get the mean (by fitting a model with an intercept), although this seems like a somewhat roundabout method. Wait... I can't. `infer__ols` requires regressors (`x`) and I can't use the same column as both the response and regressor. Hmm, that's a dead end. Still, let me remind myself: OLS with intercept only could give the mean. But the primary goal is the sample SD, so back to `data__describe`.\n\nRight, the smart move is to use `data__describe`. I'll execute `data__describe(dataset=\"d\", columns=[\"y\"])` and hopefully I'll have the mean and sample standard deviation at my fingertips.

I need to verify the univariate statistics for the PiDigits dataset. First, I checked `data.describe` and observed the mean of 'y' is 4.5348, the standard deviation is 2.86734, min is 0, max is 9, there are no missing values, and there are 10 unique values. I then confirmed these values against the NIST certified values for PiDigits. The output of `data.describe` appears correct.\n\nI need to confirm all required information for the final answer. I also need to make sure I meet the specific rules. Rules 1 and 7 and the overall logic need to be followed. Every number must originate from a tool call or the prompt, and every figure reference must exist.\n\nI realize that 'mean' and 'sd' are located within the table cells of the `data.describe` table, not in the `figures` output. However, the number of rows, 5000, is in the figures. I check what tools produce figures to be sure to follow rules. I see that the appropriate tool is `data.describe` as it's designed to provide univariate summaries. Since the question is in English, per the rules, I'll write the answer in English. The tools have formatted numbers with a decimal point. I will use 4.5348 and 2.86734 as the tool outputs indicate.\n\nFinally, I determine I must include `call_743b03b3:n_rows` in `figure_refs` since I will reference 5000 from the figures. There are no caveats. The data are complete, and the calculations are standard.\n\nSo, I will submit the following:\n```json\n{\n  \"answer\": \"The sample mean of column y is 4.5348 and the sample standard deviation is 2.86734. The dataset has 5000 observations.\",\n  \"figure_refs\": [\n    \"call_743b03b3:n_rows\"\n  ],\n  \"caveats\": []\n}\n```\n\n\n","vendor":true,"wall_ms":20933.273542206734}}
