The Raspberry Pi is a series of small single-board computers developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation to promote the teaching of basic computer science in schools and in developing countries.

Where Raspberry Pi can be used?
The Raspberry Pi has been used on land for robots, in the air for quadcopters, on the sea in racing yachts and drone boats, and there’s even a couple in space right now as well. The Raspberry Pi is conquering everywhere but under the waves, in the murky depths. Now, this is all set to change. Nowadays  Raspberry Pi is also used in Hacking.
