    About this ebook

    Raspberry Pi 3
    User Guide to Help You Get the Most Out of Your Raspberry Pi 3

    Have some Raspberry Pi! No, of course, we're not talking about dessert. We're talking about Raspberry Pi, the ongoing, ever evolving microcomputer project that's putting computers into the hands of developing countries and young people to teach them the importance and possibilities of programming. What can you do with Raspberry Pi, you ask? What can't you do with Raspberry Pi would be the far better question. Endlessly adaptable and continually improving, this inexpensive and handy little module is being modified and integrated the world over to pretty much every sort of project imaginable. Did you know Raspberry Pi is being used to stand up computer labs in West Africa? Did you know that you can use it to create interactive machines, video game consoles, motion sensors, and internet controlled robots? Basically, you can do anything with it! Or at least you can do anything that with it that you can do with a regular computer. The only limit is your imagination…and your ability to understand the Python programming language. And, well, you're on your own there, but we CAN and WILL tell you all about Raspberry Pi and how to use it. So, pull up a chair and have a slice! Some of the topics we'll be covering include: 

    • What is Raspberry Pi?
    • The History 
    • The Specs of Raspberry Pi
    • What Can You Do with Raspberry Pi?
    • How can you do these things with Raspberry Pi?
    • What Can You Definitely Not Do With Raspberry Pi (Yet)?

      Introduction

      Computers have (inarguably) become an integral part of our day to day life. Quite simply put, they make everything possible from communication to health care to air traffic control and even ground traffic. There is no part of our day to day life that is not intricately and inexorably tied to these binary objects. And yet, what does the average person really know about them? Very little it turns out.

      Oh, to be sure, people know how to use them. Everyone knows how to press buttons and navigate their way through basic applications. This is not really very impressive though since it has been demonstrated that some animals can very effectively do the exact same thing. And only a fraction of people knows how to program a computer.

      The same is true of building a computer. How many people really know how to build a computer? Proportionately speaking, not many. Far fewer still would be able to build one from scratch. And that’s where Raspberry Pi comes in to fill a very unsettling knowledge gap.

      Using incredibly basic components and programming techniques the Raspberry Pi project is teaching people to understand computers in a very fundamental way – really understanding them in a manner that allows them to build and interact with machines; making people more than just consumers of technology, but masters of it as well.

      In this book, we propose to
