✦ Synopsis

University of Manchester School of Computer Science, December 2012. - 172 p., English,

What is the Raspberry Pi? The Ra spberry Pi is a c omputer, very like the computers with which you’re already familiar. It uses a different kind of processor, so you can’t install Microsoft Windows on it. But you can install several versions of the Linux operating system that look and feel very much like Windows. If you want to, you can use the Raspberry Pi to surf the internet, send an email or write a letter using a word processor. But you can also do so much more. Easy to use but powerful, affordable and (as long as you’re careful) diffcult to break, the Raspberr y Pi is the per fect tool for aspiring computer scientists. What do we mean by computer science? We mean learning how computers work so you can make them do what you want them to do, not what someone else thinks you should do with them. And who do we mean by computer scientists? We mean you. You may fnish this manual and decide you want to be next Tim Berners Lee, but even if you don’t, we hope you have fun, learn something new and get a feel for how computers work. Because no matter what you do in life, computers are bound to be part of it.
