Most of the programs are suitable for beginners or anyone that has used other procedural programming languages.
No prior knowledge of programming necessary. If you have previously tried any programming in Python or any other language, this is an ideal next step... you'll be surprised at how fast simple programs can be executed by your Raspberry Pi.
Although written with the Raspberry Pi user in mind, the code may be compiled on any Ubuntu Linux machine or Apple Mac that has GCC installed. Some programs may also be used with the MinGW compiler for Microsoft Windows.
