This week in shop, I worked on making a c++ program that does the same thing that my python program does (Detect faces). To do this I had to get a c++ compiler working and make an install of OpenCV for c++. The c++ compiler was easy but I installed OpenCv wrong so the files could not reference each other. I have now found out that I could have edited the configuration through my build command to help prevent this issue.
For now I have given up on getting the c++ version to work, because with the new computer, python works just fine.
