of the
attendance_statistics
dictionary and
present_time
as the value of the corresponding key. In this
way, the
attendance_statistics
dictionary stores the punch time of the current id.
Finally we write the attendance_statistics dictionary to a .csv file and name the file as
'attendance_sheet.'' + presen '.csv' , so that we store the attendance sheet in time or-
der.
Note: If you have written the person’s name in the MFRC522 RFID, then replace the
id
with
text
and your
attendance sheet will record the name of the person.
def get_num ():
return len (attendance_list)
Returns the length of attendance_list , i.e. the number of attendees.
