ABSTRACT
The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card-sized single-board computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard,which can be used for many of the things that your average desktop does-spreadsheets,word processing,games and it also plays high definition video.It is developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation with the intention of promoting the teaching of basic computer science in schools. It uses a python programming language.The Raspberry Pi has a Broadcom BCM2835 system on a chip (SoC),which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU,and was originally shipped with 256 megabytes of RAM, later upgraded (Model B & Model B+) to 512 MB. It does not include a built-in hard disk or solid-state drive, but it uses an SD card for booting and persistent storage, with the Model B+ using a MicroSD.
