The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like word processing and games. However one key aspect that makes the Raspberry Pi so brilliant for schools is its ability to execute “Python” coded programmers. This allows us along with the General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) pins to create programs that can control anything from a single LED to opening your garage door.
SERVICES OFFERINGS:
The Raspberry Pi is an incredible popular credit card size mini computer with awesome capabilities. Despite of is mini size it behaves pretty much like a regular computer (it has an OS with a graphical interface, an ethernet port so you can surf the web, an HDMI output, etc.) but also it exposes several inputs/outputs (GPIO) to interact with the real world (sensors and cool tech gadgets).
A pretty common task when using this device, is to run some script (for example a python script) as a service in the operating system so it can start on boot, stop and restart usingsystemctl and more.
Python is a wonderful and powerful programming language that’s easy to use (easy to read and write) and withRaspberry Pi lets you connect your project to the real world. Python syntax is very clean, with an emphasis on readability and uses standard English keywords. Start by opening IDLE from the desktop.

OUR SKILLS MATRIX:
The fact that the developers at OdiTek were given freedom to do their own programmes, according to their interests, was motivating and allowed to work at their own pace using peer support where necessary.
The process encouraged experiential learning – learning through doing, rather than seeing or believing;
- problem-solving – we had to think, analyze the data and use each other to
iron out glitches; - collaboration – we tested each other’s program.
At OdiTek our experts are really concentrating on the following skills for the better service providing to our customer.
- Learning how to program with Python
- Connecting your Raspberry Pi to multiple sensors and receiving data from them or control hardware—for example, home automation, environment monitoring via temperature sensors, etc.
- Using your Raspberry Pi as a Web server with the program written in Python
- Writing various utilities in Python and using your Pi as a server for monitoring and tracking multiple applications, services, etc.
- REST APIS
TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES:
The Raspberry Pi has been nothing short of a revolution in introducing millions of people across the world to computing and being one of the drivers behind introducing computer programming to everyone. It has powerful enough hardware to get started with programming and the US$ 35 price tag is hard to beat.
The makers of Raspberry Pi have also paid special attention to ensuring that barriers to getting started are minimal. The recommended Linux distribution for Raspberry Pi, Raspbian, comes bundled with multiple programming languages and IDEs so that you are ready to go from the time you power on the mini development board.
Python, on the other hand, is one of the most popular languages in the world and has been around for more than two decades. It is heavily used in academic environments and is a widely supported platform in modern applications, especially utilities, and desktop and Web applications.
