A Raspberry Pi is a complicated machine. There are numerous different models, each with their own specs and features. Yet for those who are not familiar with computer software and hardware, it can be outright impossible to interpret and understand what these specifications and features actually mean. Furthermore it is also just as difficult to appreciate the differences between models and what model is the right model for you. This guide will break down all the terms and information you need to make informed choices about the Raspberry Pi. In the first chapter of this guide you will be briefly warmed into the purpose, community and software of the Raspberry Pi. The second chapter will take you several computer terms, such as RAM or Hertz to help tutor you on the fundamental differences between models. The third chapter will take you through the purpose and function of the components which you might find on a Raspberry Pi, such as GPIO pins or DSI ports. The fourth chapter will give an overview of the different Raspberry Pi models and illuminate the crucial difference between A models & B models. Finally the last chapter will give you examples of when A models and B models have been used, to both stir your interest and highlight the differences mentioned in previous chapters.
