Additional Setup

This needs to be done only if there is a problem when the program is run (in case the program misclicks)

1. Run findloc.py and hover over the search bar. The program should record your current mouse position after 5 seconds. The recording should print in the console copy it and paste it into the third line in config.txt

2. Repeat step 1 but instead of hovering over the search box, hover over your username and the blue box. And replace this value with the third line.

Note: findloc.py was added to make it easier to find the cordinates on the screen

---

Note: It prints the strength of the class, number of kids present, definetely absent - people whose first and last name were not found, maybe absent - people who's first name is present but last name is not(this could be if a person enters the meeting without his last name in his username. Just the first name can often be used to confirm presence, but if there are multiple people with the same first name then it could cause confusions, it is best to manually check for these people(by calling them).

Note: If there are lot of people and lot of full names, the program might take some time to find the attendance, for a class of 20 students it can take anywhere from 3-20 seconds.

Note you may have to make small changes to the program for your use case, this program may have errors.
