Hello, I’m Farnathi.
I’m a total newbie to the Raspberry Pi, having been given a RPi 500 by a relative when they learned I was trying to learn programming languages using only books and a paper notebook.
I know, “with a notebook?” What can I say, I tend to do things backward. (I took C++ in university completely blind. No one told me I was trying to learn the harder one first. Got a B in it, too. Figured I should try learning Javascript and Python, while I was at it. The more skills, the better, right?)
I actually have little knowledge of computer hardware, basically whatever stuck from introductory university classes on computers and growing up living with a computer hardware nut (Thanks to Dad, I know a bit of the history of computers, and I can identify the parts of computers, but don’t ask me to assemble any right now without a ton of research. At least, not one you want to work.) I’m not sure how any of this works, but I’m looking forward to learning.
