Are you looking for an easy way to learn programming, one that can help you to really work on some strong programs and applications, but will be easy enough for a beginner to understand? Have you looked at some of the other options out there and feel like they are too in-depth or hard to use for some of the basics that you want to know? Have you been able to look at some of the circuit boards out there, but they are not powerful enough or will not work with the operating system that you like to use?
