The Raspberry Pi Platform and Python Programming for the Raspberry Pi

Course Overview

This course provides an introduction to the Raspberry Pi platform and Python programming for the Raspberry Pi. Students will learn how to set up the Raspberry Pi environment, get a Linux operating system running, and write and execute basic Python code on the device. Additionally, students will learn how to use Python-based IDE (integrated development environments) for the Raspberry Pi and how to trace and debug Python code on the device. No discussion forums are included in this course.

[Applications]
After completing this course, students should be able to apply their knowledge of the Raspberry Pi platform and Python programming to create their own IoT devices. They should be able to set up the Raspberry Pi environment, install a Linux operating system, write and execute Python code, and use Python-based IDE for the Raspberry Pi. Additionally, they should be able to trace and debug Python code on the device.
