Computes the Gender Development Index (GDI) based on the given dataset. The GDI measures gender disparities in three dimensions of human development: health, education, and standard of living.

Provides tools for quantitative analysis in gender studies, including functions to calculate various gender inequality metrics such as the Gender Pay Gap, Gender Inequality Index (GII), Gender Development Index (GDI), and Gender Empowerment Measure (GEM). Also includes extracted secondary example datasets for practice and learning purposes, which were obtained from the UNDP Human Development Reports Data Center and the World Bank Gender Data Portal by the author the dataset is available on <doi:10.34740/kaggle/dsv/6359326>.
