A clarification as there is some issues with my statement on Java: If you do a simple apt-get for java ( either openjdk-6-jdk or openjdk-7-jdk ) the performance makes it unusable. But if you install "Oracle Java SE Embedded 7 JRE for ARMv6/7 Linux - Headless" you will get very good results. Thus I will call it Java-E and add it to the list of popular languages for "Pi" development
Python C / C++ Java-E Perl PHP ( and thus HTML, XML, etc. ) Ruby Please see http://www.savagehomeautomation.com/projects/raspberry-pi-installing-oracle-java-runtime-environment-jre.html On Mon, Oct 29, 2012 at 1:47 PM, Joseph Apuzzo <[email protected]> wrote: > I am working on a presentation on the Raspberry Pi for early next year. > I plan on demonstrating how the "pi" can extend popular programming > languages outside of the computer in to the real world. > The Arduino requires one to programming in a Basic like language, where as > the power of the "Pi" lies with the ability to program in almost any > language. > > So the question for comment is what "languages" do we care about?
