Level 1 badge used at Pikes Peak Makerspace

Raspberry Pi's are "single-board and modular computers or micro controllers, built on the Arm architecture, often running a Linux operating system."

At Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) we have several Raspberry Pi boards, of various models, as well as other computers throughout our space for all our members to use without any additional required training (Level 1).

To help out with Raspberry Pi projects at PPM, post your ideas and comments on our Slack #electronics channel.

Contact Us if you cannot find your answer here on our Wiki or if you notice any information that is outdated.

Pi Day, March 14th (3/14), is celebrated yearly often by eating pie, pizza, and/or reciting the digits of pi.
It was started in 1988 by the Exploratorium museum in San Francisco: https://www.exploratorium.edu/pi

Tips

The Raspberry Pi was originally going be a computer that could only run the Python language.

(That is how it got the second half of its name.)

50 Raspberry Pi Hacks & Tips You Should Know
Five Ways To Run a Program On Your Raspberry Pi At Startup
Rotate the Raspberry Pi screen
  • To find out which shell you're using, run the command echo $SHELL or ps $$
  • List/check installed fonts fc-list | grep "DejaVu Sans"
  • If the Pi 3 B+ seems slow or unresponsive, check the green light at the edge of the board for activity
  • WolframMark Benchmark Results:
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (2017), 1400 MHz: 0.14
Raspberry Pi 400, 1800 MHz: 0.23
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (2018), 2000 MHz: 0.24


Shut down the Raspberry Pi properly:

(just pulling the plug could cause memory card corruption.)

☐ Use the graphical user interface (GUI), or
☐ Use the command: sudo shutdown -h now
