Learn Raspberry Pi Programming with Python

Wolfram Donat is a computer engineer, writer, and maker and is an expert on single-board computers like the Raspberry Pi, the Beagle board, and the BBC micro:bit. He is the author of several books, including Learn Raspberry Pi Programming With Python, Make A Raspberry Pi-Controlled Robot, Getting Started with the BBC micro:bit, and Jumpstarting C. He is a best-selling author on Amazon and has received funding from NASA and others for his work in autonomous submersibles and computer vision.

“Donat (independent scholar) provides a volume that is about equally divided between background material (Python, Circuits, the Raspberry Pi) and a set of stimulating ‘maker’ projects that combine coding, circuit-building, and mechanical construction. The writing style is casual but clear. … the determined hobbyist with sufficient experience will find the background material useful and the projects challenging, stimulating, and rewarding, and the book likewise serves as a useful resource for libraries hosting makerspaces.” (C. Vickery, Choice, Vol. 56 (6), February, 2019)
