This is one of the first classes that engineers often have to take (if they were not computer science & didn't get stuck in a functional programming language class learning LISP like I did) during their freshman year to learn about programming languages where they learn Arduino & MATLAB.
Arduinos are a great introduction into programming because people get to directly see the effects of their program written in MATLAB or something directly onto the Arduino which is a little microcontroller breadboard circuit that connects to code written from your machine to operate.
I never took that Arduino course though so instead I will have to learn it from scratch from building blocks. Either way there are things I have learned along the way but it's back to basics for me.
The Raspberry Pi works a bit differently as it is meant to run as a full computer with internet running Linux usually. The Arduino attempts to map actions to code on a much more low-level hardware stage.
Although recently they've both been trying to improve to essentially do each others' jobs.
