Is using Aurdino code on Rasberry Pi just as powerful as using Rasberry Pi programming?

I'm surprised nobody has answered this, but yes. It is being compiled as regular c++ and ran as a regular RPI binary.

Just to drive this home, standard Arduino code is a C++ subset which is cross-compiled into AVR machine instructions to execute on the MCU as a limited set of tasks without the help (or interruptions) of an OS. When compiled for the RPI it is compiled as normal C++ and runs as a normal process under Linux.
