Table of Contents


Lets start from the beginning i.e. understanding the Raspberry Pi before we get to the point of discussing various other issues surrounding the Raspberry Pi.

A Comprehensive Background of the Raspberry Pi
What Is It?

In simplest terms, the Raspberry Pi refers to a series of small computers (in the category of single board computers) that were developed in the UK by the Raspberry Foundation to help teach basic computer science in various schools both in the developed and developing countries. Out of the box, the new device, which you can purchase from Raspberrypi.org, comes without the peripheral devices (mouse, case and keyboard).

Before we discuss the specifics of how to set up and use the Raspberry Pi as a pro even as a complete beginner, we will start by going through the journey through time i.e. how the Raspberry Pi came into being. This short history will help you to understand Raspberry Pi well before we get to set it up.

A Short History of Raspberry Pi, And the Setup

Before raspberry Pi was invented, personal computers had become an expensive household appliance. Many parents had grown reluctant of letting their kids use the family computers due to the high cost of the machines and fragility. Many kids, as a result, were not well-versed with computers. In 2006, Dr. Eben Upton together with his associates from the University of Cambridge realized that there was a steep decline in numbers and skills of the students enrolling for computer science courses. They decided to develop an inexpensive computer that would enable young people familiarize themselves adequately with computer concepts.

In 2011, the Raspberry Pi Model B was created and it sold more than two million units within a period of two years. Since then, there has been an ongoing improvement in different models of Raspberry Pi.

The machine is not only a computer but a microcontroller as well with pins that can sense externally and actually control devices. The computer, among other uses, is used for general purpose computing, learning about programming, product prototyping, controlling robots, creating a media center, security systems and home automation, and as a project platform.

Setting Up Your Raspberry Pi

Obviously, before you set it up, you need to purchase your Raspberry Pi . Once you have your own Raspberry Pi, now you can go on to set it up. Luckily, setting up your Pi is pretty straightforward.

First of all, you have to make sure the Raspberry Pi operating system is installed on the SD card. You can do this using the NOOBS (new out of box software) program easily. The operating system of Raspberry Pi, known as Raspbian, and data storage are stored on a Micro SD card. This means that you can be able to set up different SD cards -each one of them booting a Raspberry Pi in different configurations. For instance, by changing the SD Card in the Pi, the device could be a robot, drone control system, camera controller, home security system, earthquake detector, weather station, radon detector, SETI cruncher, GPS, RFIDReader and many more.

You need to note that the micro SD card speed usually range up to class 10 (this is the fastest). The class is indicated by a number in a circle. The recommended minimum useful class for Raspberry Pi is class 4. While the class 10 card will operate for a longer period of time, it (the card) tends to wear out in time. Also, as with any computer data, you have to back up the SD card.

If you received your raspberry Pi pre-installed with a NOOBS SD card, you can very well skip to the Wi-Fi set up section in the book. Otherwise, you have to follow the steps below to download and install NOOBS on your SD card:

Go to this site and click the NOOBS icon. Select [Download Zip] and then unzip the folder containing the downloaded NOOBS system.

Follow the file labeled INSTRUCTIONS-READMEtxt located in the unzipped NOOBS - photo 1

Follow the file labeled INSTRUCTIONS-README.txt located in the unzipped NOOBS folder.

At the bottom of the desktop, youll find the language selection window where you will choose the language of your country- for instance, in the US, select English. This will then lead to the display of the corresponding US keyboard. Now click on the Raspbian check box; click on the install icon, making sure to click yes on the confirmation window. When the window labeled [OS(es) Installed] appears, just click OK.
