The document discusses the Raspberry Pi, a small, inexpensive computer developed to promote computer science education. Some key points: - The Raspberry Pi was created by Eben Upton and colleagues to address declining computer science enrollment and skills among students. It aims to make computing accessible and experimental for all ages. - It is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into a monitor via HDMI and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It can perform tasks like browsing, documents, games, and more. - Various operating systems can be used including NOOBS, RISC OS, Android, and various Linux distributions. The document provides examples of setup and programming projects for the Raspberry Pi.

- 3. What’s Raspberry Pi ? • The Raspberry Pi is a low cost, credit-card sized computer that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables people of all ages to explore computing, and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s capable of doing everything you’d expect a desktop computer to do, from browsing the internet and playing high-definition video, to making spreadsheets, word-processing, and playing games.

- 10. The Story Of Raspberry Pi • Eben Upton : Idea 2006 with colleagues at University of Cambridge’s Computer Laboratory • the dwindling number of students, and the poor skill levels of those students, entering the program • While current students entering the program often had Web design experience, programming experience was becoming very rare. • That the price and sophistication of modern computers had made them overly complicated for kids to experiment with • In the '70s and '80s, kids could use an Amiga or Commodore 64 to boot into a programming environment. In later decades
- 11. Finally Upton… Upton wanted to create a cheap, easily programmable computer that would bring back the experimental spirit of an earlier era of computing, by making a device cheap enough so anyone could tamper with it without fear of expensive mistakes. From 2006 to 2008, the official history goes, Upton and his colleagues worked on the prototype that would eventually become the Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi Foundation was established in May 2009, and the first shipment of Raspberry Pis became available in April 2012.
