Summary

In this chapter, a list of parts for your Pi2 or Pi3 supercomputer was presented. We then proceeded to learn about the genesis of the Pi microcomputer, and its all-important technical specs. Next, we configured the master node, and subsequently transferred the requisite codes from the main PC to the master node. Finally, the slave1 node was configured to create an initial two-node Pi supercomputer. In Chapter 4, Static IP Address and Hosts File Setup, we will learn how to set up the static IP address and hosts file on the master and slave1 nodes.
