Because of you #RaspberryPilVBeginners i learned python 2 years ago Thanks a lot!

It would be helpful if you explained what Putty is and how to use VNC to remotely control a Raspberry Pi. It would be helpful if you used an editor provided on the Raspberry Pi rather than the one you do use.

Thanks. Always good to see uncluttered example to prove out a new environment.

For everyone saying programing etc. is boring.
A guy named Emile (or something like that) managed to reprogram an app that would give you a free burger at McDonalds, only he made it so he and his friends could get free burgers, forever. All with the coding of an evening.

Thank you for this! I love my little Raspberry Pi. And Python is one of those things that I've been wanting to dig into.

He is running VNC (remote desktop software) & putty (remote SSH access) so he can connect to his Pi from his windows desktop, its practically the same as running it on the Pi itself, with the advantage that your Pi only needs power and internet (or local network) access, so no need to plug in a screen and keyboard, mouse.

Laura you need to set up a VNC or RDP server on your Pi, it allows you to remote control the desktop of the serving computer, in this case, the Pi. Then he records from his computer.

You don't have to install Python on your laptop. Just enter "python" in the putty terminal connected to the Pi. This starts the python interpreter and you can start writing python code.

If you guys download tightvncserver on both your computer and raspberry pi, you can actually use the whole GUI on the raspberry pi without actually needing a monitor to display it on, you can use your laptop screen instead. It is very neat!

im getting a raspberry pi and this is helping me:-)

[colinsmith]

This looks fun, you have got me hooked!

[macgruber]

But it says "Good morning to you *TOO*" :(

[Jad.m]

the title of the video says how to start programming with raspberry pi but on the screen at 2:02 it says wont teach how to program



does this make sense?!

[SDoylerrs]

I don't understand you rushed the start, I have been programming in python for years and I understand it, but you said you were on windows then continued about running SPE on debian? excuse me to be confused but I just assume your running all this on the Pi itself?

[eMerryZ]

i have the raspberry pi b+ model and am connecting it with my laptop using putty and am wondering if i have to install a python software on my laptop or just create an environment in the raspberry pi on putty's terminal and start programming?

[froctopuse.g]

or you could do
print "good morning"
print"good morning to you too"

[johnwalsom]

really helpful and encouraging. Many thanks

[martinnash]

The title "Raspberry Pi - How to start programming with Python" seems a bit misleading. My Raspberry Pi desktop doesn't look like yours. I have had a good look and I can't see anything called putty.

[manasjain]

Can we run computer vision program on raspberrypi, if yes then please let me cite it or reffer. Thanks

[lauralowe]

Mine also never came with SPE. I have installed the lastest version of Debian, but IDLE acts in the same manner as SPE by the looks of it
