Really? Well I'm certainly not a highschooler, and have been working as a software developer for more than a decade. Until today, I see R Pi as tiny Linux box. Okay for running your PHP/Python apps.
If you want to go lower level, which I believe is necessary for CS/EE education, perhaps get one of those ARM microcontrollers.
- rovr138 3y agoWhich RPi’s have you had? For me the OS, the SD card, the power have been the major fragile points it’s had (some have been fixed in iterations). For a school or people wanting to learn, that’s a lot of things you have to work around, keep in mind, or figure out when they happen. Not counting availability.
