Always thought the raspberry pi was missing a trick by not just dropping straight into basic. It is supposed to be a learning tool, Linux is a brick wall of a learning curve (imo!)

Anyway it's been a very long time since I used my raspberry pi, maybe this is now a feature.

RISC OS on the Pi includes BBC BASIC:

They used to offer a BBC BASIC-only image called RISC OS Pico, which you can still find on the Internet Archive and should still work on older Pis:

IIRC the standard full install still includes Python with an IDE and some PyGame examples, right in the start menu.
