The Raspberry Pi and other similar computers are also referred to as "single-board" computers.

This makes the Raspberry Pi a favorite amongst tinkerers, Makers, electronics hobbyists and anyone else with a cool idea for a project. Additionally, because a Raspberry Pi is a fully functional computer, with input/output, storage and wifi capabilities, it can also be used to interface and control other things. Since it is also inexpensive, it functions as a great learning tool, making it possible for anyone to have their own computer. Because it is tiny, it can be used in all kinds of things that a typical computer does not work well with, such as robotics and embedded systems. Raspberry Pi is essentially a tiny, inexpensive computer (about US$35). Reporting bugs and making feature requests.
