Have you ever wanted to start programming, make a game or you really don’t know where to start. You read the books on programming and they just sound so confusing. Well the Raspberry Pi is a great way to start learning and it supports multiple languages for programming.
What is a Raspberry pi?The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It’s a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games.
It also plays high-definition video and it has a very neat program called scratch. What can you do with scratch well you can create games, animation, and short stories. Now you can get scratch for Linux, Windows and other operating systems. When you go to a Raspberry Pi site and download raspbian it already has scratch preloaded. It is great for beginners and children. So you can see what basic programming does and see if you have a knack for it.
