4-pin Male Header Only
PRT-08231 only has the 4-pin Male Header. The picture is confusing. Try looking at this picture => [ https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0jwgLkjMWzDWVpRa1g0UUIzT1k ].
You will still need to order the crimp pins [ https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8100 ] and 4-pin female housing polarized connector [ https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8097 ] . Make sure that you are using crimp tool [ https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13193 ] for the female housing.
Core Skill: Soldering
This skill defines how difficult the soldering is on a particular product. It might be a couple simple solder joints, or require special reflow tools.
Skill Level: Rookie - The number of pins increases, and you will have to determine polarity of components and some of the components might be a bit trickier or close together. You might need solder wick or flux.
