  7. Raspberry Pi What is a Raspberry Pi? “The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It is a capable little computer which can be used in electronics projects, and for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays high-definition video. We want to see it being used by kids all over the world to learn programming.” http://www.raspberrypi.org/ Raspberry Pi is a trademark of the Raspberry Pi Foundation
