Yep! Best value in my opinion is the Raspberry Pi 4 with 2GB of RAM. For your first, I would suggest purchasing a kit that has the USB-C power supply, and the regular HDMI > Micro HDMI cables to allow you to plug it in to a regular monitor. They often supply a pre-programmed card that will allow you to be up and running quickly. Another bonus of the Pi is that if you really mess up the software, you simply plug the SD card into your computer and download a new image (very easy)! Also a great way for you to practice your new python skills!!!
