Moving on to the technical details of the computer, we find out that it is a single-board computer. You must be amazed to hear these words "A single-board computer" because how can a single chip be a whole computer. It comes with a single printed circuit board and works as a complete computer just like the other laptops, desktops, etc. The best element about this is that it is small of a size of credit card and immensely powerful. Readers must be wondering how such a small system can be so strong that it can perform anything that a power-hungry computer can do. It is so because this computer came into being from a wish to enhance hands-on computer education across the globe. Raspberry Pi introduced Zero family that is a lighter version of Raspberry Pi full version and lacks a few features such as numerous USB ports and wired network port. Moreover, the layout is also small and has low power needs. Raspberry Pi has been extremely successful because they are highly compatible computers. It means that the software written for one model will run on any other model. The software compatibility is so high that you can take the latest version of the Raspberry Pi's operating system and you can run it with the latest Model B prototype. The updated software might face a few issues such as it might affect the speed of the computer, but it will still run. This book is going to highlight the features of Raspberry Pi 3 and 4 models, but these features are quite like the upcoming and the latest computers in the market and these concepts could be easily applied to all other computers.
