A series of tutorials on how to use Python on a Raspberry Pi. The tutorials are provided by a Jupyter notebook, which you can run interactively on your Raspberry Pi.
Please use a version of Raspbian Stretch with Desktop as the notebook was not tested on the brandnew Raspbian Buster. You can find the last Stretch image here: https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/images/raspbian-2019-04-09/
Remember the Raspberry Pi cheat sheet if you need more information on installation, terminal etc.: https://wim.adbk-nuernberg.de/pages/raspberrypi/
Open a terminal and fetch this repository:
> git clone https://github.com/0may/RaspiHowtos.git
Then cd in the RaspiHowtos directory and run the install_dependencies.sh script to install all required software, which may take a while:
> cd RaspiHowtos
> sudo ./install_dependencies.sh
In a terminal type the command
> jupyter notebook
Make sure that your working directory is the RaspiHowtos directory from the installation step.
Then a browser should open, where you can run the different tutorials (.ipynb files). In the tutorial notebooks, you can execute blocks of code by pressing CTRL+ENTER (maybe APPLE+ENTER on Macs).
You can run the jupyter instance to be accessed over network, e.g. to use your laptop and its browser. However, sound and graphics will be output on the Pi. Here is how to run jupyter without opening a browser on your Pi and listening to a connection on the Pi's IP address and a specified port:
> jupyter notebook --no-browser --ip=192.168.1.46 --port=9000
Make sure to set your Pi's IP address (get with ifconfig command). Then you can access jupyter over your local network pointing your browser to the address http://192.168.1.46:9000.
