00:00.050 --> 00:05.420
In the next few lessons, you are going to learn how to use the terminal on your Raspberry Pi and work

00:05.420 --> 00:08.180
with some of the most useful command line tools.

00:08.180 --> 00:09.050
So great!

00:09.050 --> 00:13.520
You can now use a Pi as a sensor to detect movement with your Raspberry Pi.

00:13.550 --> 00:16.400
We will come back to that when we do the final project.

00:16.430 --> 00:19.130
Now let's learn how to use the terminal.

00:19.130 --> 00:22.670
Everything we did for now didn't require us to use the terminal.

00:22.670 --> 00:26.090
We could create folders, files, write Python programs.

00:26.090 --> 00:31.130
We could save them, execute them all that using some graphical tools available for you.

00:31.160 --> 00:33.950
Thanks to the Raspberry Pi OS desktop.

00:33.950 --> 00:37.100
But using the terminal is something you have to learn.

00:37.100 --> 00:42.680
If you want to step up your game and go further with Raspberry Pi, with programming, and also with

00:42.680 --> 00:44.240
Unix systems.

00:44.270 --> 00:50.510
Also, some of the functionalities on the Raspberry Pi are only available if you can use the terminal.

00:50.540 --> 00:56.690
At first it may seem like something very hard to understand, but in fact it's surprisingly easy.

00:56.690 --> 01:01.940
And as you will see with just a few commands, you can accomplish a lot of things and you will be able

01:01.940 --> 01:05.660
to create files to run Python scripts and much, much more.

01:05.660 --> 01:07.550
And it won't be that difficult.

01:07.550 --> 01:10.850
The only thing it requires is a little bit of practice.

01:10.880 --> 01:13.520
Note that I will keep things simple here.

01:13.520 --> 01:19.220
This course is not a complete course about how to use a terminal with all the available commands.

01:19.220 --> 01:24.200
I will show you the main ones that you will use the most so that you are comfortable with the terminal,

01:24.200 --> 01:27.500
and you can complete the final project of this course.

01:27.530 --> 01:27.920
All right.

01:27.950 --> 01:29.150
And now enough talking.

01:29.150 --> 01:31.280
Let's start to work with this terminal.
