Description: Suppose that you wish to learn the Python programming language and also something about the embedded computer hardware that controls your car, your fridge, your phone and the credit card reader you used to purchase them all. You could pay for a course from a for-profit training company or from a local college. Or you could order this book and an inexpensive Arduino or Raspberry Pi single-board computer, mastering each of its fourteen projects. That choice depends upon your finances, your preferred learning style, whom you can call on for help as needed, and how confident / determined you are.
