The absence of the Evaluation > Debugger menu in the Raspberry Pi version of Mathematica may stem from limitations specific to the platform or the student version of the software. Users are encouraged to check if the debugger is available on their devices. There is speculation that the debugger feature might be intentionally disabled to encourage users to upgrade to a more robust version. However, it is suggested that the lack of this feature is likely due to the additional work required to implement debugging across different hardware and operating systems, rather than a deliberate limitation. Wolfram Research is actively working to enhance the Raspberry Pi version, aiming for it to reach parity with the main product over time. The discussion also touches on business strategies of software vendors, comparing Mathematica's approach to that of MATLAB, which offers student pricing before transitioning to higher costs for professional use.
