Genderize.io has a daily limit to the requests one can do to the API. This results in false outcomes for what concerns the gender recognition part of the code. In fact, when the request limit is exceeded, the code store the name of the character involved in the list of names whose gender has not been identified. This is not good for the final statistical analysis.

The following branch has been created with the specific aim to repeatedly run the code in different days and sum the outputs in order to produce a list of already classified names. Thus, the gender recognition part of the code checks first into these lists and only if the names are not in there the gender recognitions libraries are used. In this way, the results shouldn't be skewed.
