User guide
----------
### Installation
Install with PIP:
```bash
$ pip install persian-gender-detection
```
### get_gender
this function works for finding gender and returning gender. if find the gender return it, otherwise return `UNKNOWN`
#### Example
```python
from persian_gender_detection import get_gender
# Detect gender
get_gender(' عــــلی ') # MALE
get_gender('نرگـــ😉ــس') # FEMALE
get_gender('حســ😎ــن') # MALE
get_gender('۱۲۳۹۹۳محمدعلی123') # MALE
get_gender('۱۲۳مهناز۱۲۳') # FEMALE
get_gender('فاطمه زهرا') # UNKNOWN
get_gender("جانان") # UNKNOWN
```
### get_gender_nearest
sometimes is difficult to find the gender from names, this problem can have many reasons for example 2 parts names or mistakes in writing. This function helps to solve this problem to some extent.
#### Example
```python
from persian_gender_detection import get_gender_nearest
get_gender_nearest('فاطمه زهرا') # (FEMALE, 'فاطمه')
get_gender_nearest('محمدنیسنممدیتیس') # ('MALE', 'محمد')
get_gender_nearest("جانان") # ("FEMALE", "جانا")
```
