Twitter Bot Classifier

This program uses a Random Forrest Classifier to predict whether or not a given twitter account is controlled by a human or a bot. The data has been mined from a collection of real twitter accounts, both human and non-human, then passed to our classifier. The program will accept a twitter username as input and will return whether or not it believes that account is human or bot.
