Description: ### Factanal
        
        Python wrapper replicating the known factor analysis output from the factanal R function. 
        The only supported input is a pandas data frame. Formulas as input are currently 
        not supported. A covariance matrix is always computed from the input data frame. 
        Setting control variables for maximum likelihood estimation is currently not 
        supported.

        #### Example
        
        ```
        import pandas as pd
        from r.wrapper import factanal
        
        df = pd.DataFrame({"v1": [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,3,3,3,3,3,4,5,6],
                           "v2": [1,2,1,1,1,1,2,1,2,1,3,4,3,3,3,4,6,5],
                           "v3": [3,3,3,3,3,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,5,4,6],
                           "v4": [3,3,4,3,3,1,1,2,1,1,1,1,2,1,1,5,6,4],
                           "v5": [1,1,1,1,1,3,3,3,3,22,1,1,1,322,1,6,4,5],
                           "v6": [1,1,2,1,1,3,3,3,3,22,1,1,1,322,1,6,4,5],
                           "v7": [1,1,4,1,1,3,3,3,3,3,1,2,1,1,1,6,4,5],
                           "v8": [1,1,5,2,1,3,3,3,4,3,1,2,1,2,1,6,5,4]})
        
        fa_res = factanal(pdf, factors=5, scores='regression', rotation='varimax', 
                          verbose=True, return_dict=True)
        
        pd.DataFrame(fa_res["scores"])
        ```
        
        
        #### Installation
        
        ```pip install factanal```
        
        #### Dependencies
        The only dependency is the rpy2 library. 
        
        In addition to that, R must be installed on your system and accessible to rpy2.
