Book Description:
The Raspberry Pi is a single-board mini computer designed to
get more people (particularly children) interested in computer
programming. It aims to make programming tools and educational programs
as accessible as possible, making it very easy to get started with.
This book will guide you through six fun projects that show how
programming can be used to be creative. Each project has clear
step-by-step instructions and explanations helping children grasp the
concepts easily.
You will start by setting up the Raspberry Pi and get to grips with
the Scratch programming language to create simple animations. Gain and
put to use your understanding of Python to write simple yet useful
programs. Create and play a physical game by connecting it to the
Raspberry Pi en route to become aware of a number of other possible uses
for a very similar circuit/program. Finally, with an understanding of
Sonic Pi, you will create your own music.
