Pi Zero, 2p for scale, not included with prize.

Thanks to a recent visit to Pi Towers, we’re in possession of a very difficult to get hold of Raspberry Pi Zero. Within Mythic Beasts we don’t have an immediate need for a Pi Zero, so we thought we’d give it away to someone more deserving. So here’s a competition.

Our recruitment page frequently foxes experienced programmers but teenagers often have little difficulty,

This competition is open until 9th December at 17:00. In order to enter you must have been born on or after 1st September 1997. Send us a successful answer, and we’ll pick the one we like best and send the winner a Pi Zero.

People over the age of 18 will have to be satisfied merely with the respect of their peers and can go buy their own Pi Zero, for example from our customer Pi Supply.
