Summary


In this chapter, we first learnt about the most common ways to install third party libraries and how to then use them in our own Python code. Doing this greatly broadens the range of functionality that becomes available to your Python applications.

We then looked at ways that we can package our own Python libraries and application, using the setup tools module ready for distribution to other devices.

In the next chapter, we will start to focus on some of the Raspberry Pi specific side of Python as we start to use the gpio library to access and control the GPIO header on the Raspberry Pi.
