How to Start?
1. Choose a Primary Language:

o Start with Python, as it’s beginner-friendly and widely used in


robotics.

2. Set a Learning Schedule:

o Dedicate 1–2 hours daily for coding and practicing.

3. Hands-On Practice:

o Work on small projects like controlling an LED using Python on a


Raspberry Pi.

4. Use Free Tools:

o For Python, use Jupyter Notebook or Google Colab.

o For C++/Java, install IDEs like VS Code, Eclipse, or IntelliJ.

How Long Will It Take?


1. Python: 1–2 months to become proficient (basic to intermediate).

2. C++: 2–3 months (if you already know Python, it’s easier).

3. Java: 2–3 months.

4. MATLAB: 1 month for basics and understanding how to use it in


robotics.

5. Robotics Skills (ROS, Arduino, Raspberry Pi): 6–12 months for a


foundational understanding.
Key Tips for Success:
1. Focus on Problem-Solving: Programming is about logic, and your
non-IT background won’t hold you back if you practice consistently.

2. Hands-On Learning: Build and simulate small robots using tools like
Arduino and Tinkercad.

3. Set a Daily Schedule: Dedicate 1–2 hours daily for coding and
practicing.

- Leverage Free Tools:


- Python: Use Jupyter Notebook or Google Colab.
- C++/Java: Use IDEs like VS Code, Eclipse, or IntelliJ.

4. Be Consistent: Progress takes time, but with a structured approach,


you can achieve your goals within a year!
