What is a Raspberry pi?

Comparison between Arduino and Raspberry

pi.
Getting started with raspberry pi.

A Small Introduction
The raspberry pi is a single board

computer.it has 32 bit


microprocessor.
The Raspberry Pi is a low cost, case
less computer, the size of a credit
card.
It plugs into a computer monitor or
TV and uses a standard keyboard
and a mouse.

Raspberry pi Vs Arduino
The Raspberry Pi is a mini-computer, running a

Linux operating system, and the Arduino is a


microcontroller, without the typical OS style you
may be used to.
The code that you write in IDE is the only code that
runs on the chip.Arduino has no interpreter, no OS,
firmware. You C code is compiled in the machine
language and then it runs on the Arduino itself.
Instead of writing code to control your hardware
directly, you actually write programs that run within
an OS.


The Raspberry Pi is 40 times faster than an

Arduino when it comes to clock speed.


Pi has 128,000 times more RAM. The
Raspberry Pi is an independent computer that
can run an operating system in Linux.
It can multitask, support two USB ports, and
connect wirelessly to the Internet.
Raspberry Pi can multitask processesit can
run multiple programs in the background
while activated.
