If you intend to use the GPIO, make sure you buy one that has the slot at the side for the flat cable, otherwise you can obtain it by cutting a slot on one side of the container, from 5 € (plastic) to 50 € (aluminum).įig.1: PiBow Container with slot, but there are many other types A case (also plastic, right to protection) for your new liltte Raspberry!.The faster the SD card is that you purchase, the faster the Raspberry Pi will be: purchase one with a transfer rate of at least 30MB/s, I assure you that you will not regret, from 10 to 20 €. An SD card with at least 16GB of memory (preferably 32GB, working with Mathematica, you will find that the SD card is like the airstrip for pilots of aircraft: it is never too much).

A micro USB wall adapter that delivers stabilized 5V and 1A at least, few €.

A Raspberry Model B (with connector Ethernet and 512MB of memory on board), about 35 €.

What to buy for use Mathematica on Raspberry Pi It is possible to run Mathematica from your Raspberry Pi in text mode, from a local or remote terminal, in graphical mode, locally or remotely and in kernel-remote mode, even though the latter mode is subject to purchase of a licensed version of Mathematica. It is a non-limited version, with all 5000 and beyond Mathematica functions working without expire and with special features designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi. If you are interested, you can download and install the latest release of Mathematica from Wolfram Foundation’s website (it is free), on your Raspberry Pi. In this article I will explain what hardware you need, how to download this software, how to install and how to use it. I hope that this article will spark interest for all those who are interested in the world of modeling or even for those who are approaching to the world of Raspberry Pi for the first time.

I recently wrote an article on the site electroYou about this topic, and I was asked to propose it to the Meccanismo Complesso community. Did you ever consider that Rasperry Pi and Mathematica could work together?
