Overview of this book

The Raspberry Pi is one of the smallest and most affordable single board computers that has taken over the world of hobby electronics and programming, and the Python programming language makes this the perfect platform to start coding with. The book will start with a brief introduction to Raspberry Pi and Python. We will direct you to the official documentation that helps you set up your Raspberry Pi with the necessary equipment such as the monitor, keyboard, mouse, power supply, and so on. It will then dive right into the basics of Python programming. Later, it will focus on other Python tasks, for instance, interfacing with hardware, GUI programming, and more. Once you get well versed with the basic programming, the book will then teach you to develop Python/Raspberry Pi applications. By the end of this book, you will be able to develop Raspberry Pi applications with Python and will have good understanding of Python programming for Raspberry Pi.

Summary

In this chapter, we looked at how to go about creating a graphical user interface using the Qt framework in Python and extended our unit conversion application to have a graphical interface.

This is the final chapter of this book and by now, I hope you have a good working knowledge of Python and the tools and libraries that come with it. You should now have a try at creating your own scripts and applications using the techniques covered throughout the book.
