ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children\'s paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost \"in the stacks\" for as long as they wish.

What can you do with the Raspberry Pi, the affordable computer the size of a credit card? All sorts of things! If you're learning how to program--or looking to build new electronic projects, this hands-on guide will show you just how valuable this flexible little platform can be.

Updated to include coverage of the Raspberry Pi Model B+, Getting Started with Raspberry Pi takes you step-by-step through many fun and educational possibilities. Take advantage of several preloaded programming languages. Use the Raspberry Pi with Arduino. Create Internet-connected projects. Play with multimedia. With Raspberry Pi, you can do all of this and more.

In Getting Started with Raspberry Pi, you'll:

  • Get acquainted with hardware features on the Pi's board
  • Learn enough Linux to move around the operating system
  • Start programming in Python and Scratch
  • Draw graphics, play sounds, and handle mouse events with Pygame
  • Use the Pi's input and output pins to do some hardware hacking
  • Discover how Arduino and the Raspberry Pi can work together
  • Create your own Pi-based web server with Python
  • Work with the Raspberry Pi Camera Module and USB webcams
