The Raspberry Pi is an inexpensive programmable credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It can be used for many of the things that your PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and playing games, but its real purpose is to inspire children (and adults) to learn how to program. Over five million Raspberry Pis have been sold worldwide, so far! Raspberry Pi 3 in easy steps starts with the basic components you’ll need, setting up the system and logging into the console. Then, in easy steps, it introduces you to the Raspbian operating system that is optimized for the Raspberry Pi. You'll learn how to customize the look and feel of your system, how to navigate the file system, and how to use the powerful system ‘shell’ to make things happen for you. The new GPIO interface is fully described, and the new NOOBS installer is also described for setup. Raspberry Pi 3 in easy steps enables complete beginners to create their very own computer programs with the Scratch visual programming environment. It also instructs programming in the high-level (human-readable) Python programming language, which is processed by the Python ‘interpreter’ to produce results fast. Examples demonstrate how to use the included Python ‘pygame’ module, to make your own games, and how to use the included 'Tkinter’ module to create graphical windowed apps. Raspberry Pi 3 in easy steps also illustrates how to control electrical input and output on the Raspberry Pi header from Python scripts, including lighting a lamp, adding more buttons and controlling projects. With the knowledge gained from this book the reader can confidently advance to any future electronic Raspberry Pi project or other explore other programming environments. Covers the latest versions of Python.

From beginner to expert in Raspberry Pi. Learn useful Linux skills and practice multiples project with step-by-step guides How To Become A Raspberry Pi Expert Even If You Are Not Already A Linux Guru? The Raspberry Pi is a device that can scare many people when they are new to this. How can a cheap electronic circuit with a mysterious operating system be a good idea for me? Yes, the Raspberry Pi is a small computer (close to a credit card size) that runs mostly on Linux and that can be plugged to a standard screen, mouse and keyboard. So, this is probably a little different from what you're used to. That's why it may be difficult or at least not motivating to get started on Raspberry Pi. But don't worry, with this book you will get everything you need for a good start, whatever your current level is. About the author Patrick Fromaget graduated from higher school in computer science. He started as a web developer, before specializing in system administration. He has always been passionate about IT and has managed Linux servers for over 15 years. In 2018, he launched the RaspberryTips.com website to share his passion for the Raspberry Pi and help other people to progress. More than 100 tutorials have been written on the site, on various subjects. From the start, the site has enjoyed growing success and a YouTube channel was also launched on the subject in 2020, to help the most visual. What is inside the book? This book is a challenge you take, to lead you from the beginning towards mastering the Raspberry Pi device. The course is divided into 30 steps. The idea is to make one little step a day to be an expert in 30 days. In each step you discover a new concept, go through the details and then go to practice. Each day is a new, progressive step towards your goal. In the beginning you learn more about the hardware, then you will learn how to use the operating system (Raspbian). The second part of the book is more about step-by-step projects, programming, and other operating systems and software. So, it's really a book for all audiences: - If you don't know anything yet, you can read the book in order - If you already have bases on Raspberry Pi or Linux, some chapters can be browsed quickly - And even if you already have a correct level, you will inevitably find information there to go even further Ready to take off? Linux is a skill in great demand in business, and learning it on a different computer is the best way to learn it. The Raspberry Pi was created to teach IT and programming in schools, and it's never too late to learn. To go through this learning process, you need a companion, and you have found it here. This book is a must-have for anyone who wants to improve its skills on Raspberry Pi and Linux in general. Buy it today to become a Raspberry Pi expert in 30 days!

Microcontrollers, like the RP2040 at the heart of Raspberry Pi Pico, are computers stripped back to their bare essentials. You don't use monitors or keyboards with them, but program them over USB to take their input from (and send their output to) their input/output (IO) pins. Using these programmable connections, you can light lights, make noises, send text to screens, and much more. In Get Started with MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico, you will learn how to use the beginner-friendly language MicroPython to write programs and connect up hardware to make your Raspberry Pi Pico interact with the world around it. Using these skills, you can create your own electro-mechanical projects, whether for fun or to make your life easier. This book shows you how to: Get started with Raspberry Pi Pico Work with various electronic components Create your own programmable electronic contraptions Work with Programming Input and Output (PIO) for low level, timing-critical projects Learn the Raspberry Pi Pico pinouts for hooking up components Use the I2C and SPI protocols to connect to components By the end of the book, you'll know how to create your own programmable electronic contraptions. What you do with them is up to you.
