You download a file and run it on your Pi, its literally made to teach children computing. You can buy a used android phone and do it easier a pi is too expensive or hard.

Questions people will ask:

1. What is a Pi?

2. Where's the keyboard/mouse/screen?

3. What does "download a file" mean?

4. What does "run it" mean?

And as for using an Android... that immediately defeats the purpose since they're basically Google data vacuums.

I don’t see your point. Using the Internet is a data vaccum, you will probably google it even and watch the lecture on YouTube.

You don’t need to do any of this this listen to the Feynman lectures.
