The Raspberry Pi board is a micro-computer with much more limited capacity than the average laptop or PC. It’s basically a two-chip board about the size of a business card.
The design is intended for experimenters and beginning programmers, linux based, and has direct physical access to the I/O ports on the cpu chip.
I’m currently reading this forum on a B+ but will be obtaining a Pi 2 in the very near future owing to the low capacity I’m working with.
I started getting into the Arduino controller boards. Will this do similar things? Allowing input and output?
