How movaid7/opencv_classattendance works

This is a C++/OpenCV class-attendance application. Its main workflow is to capture webcam frames, detect and recognize faces, track presence and lateness, and write a dated register; the menu also offers student enrollment, register lookup, model improvement, face detection, and data wiping. The sampled source shows the menu, parts of recognition and register handling, face detection helpers, and face preprocessing. Some menu capabilities are documented or visible only in partial excerpts, so their internal links are omitted rather than inferred.
