Be a bit careful with the permissions and making sure that your program runs properly before you put it on boot: you can waste a lot of time trying to figure out what went wrong!

This tutorial will demonstrate how to auto-run Python programs on the Raspberry Pi, especially at startup.

Unlike the Arduino, the Pi needs to be set up to run a program automatically. When using the Raspberry Pi, many times you may have a program you want to automatically start it at boot so that you can use your project without logging in to the RaspberryPi via SSH or VNC.
