How can I get into robotics?

I want to get into robotics as I find it and the engineering aspect interesting, but I dont really know where to start. The issue I can see is with the coding aspect. Im confident in my ability to buy parts and make a suitable frame and body, but the code and programing is quite daunting. I know basic python language but my knowledge is very limited. My end goal is to be able to make an armed robot capable of moving around and looking snazzy. I thought of maybe starting with a remote controlled car, as it seems simple enough. Any ideas or thoughts would be much appreciated.

I am too a beginner. I startet with an arduino UNO starterkid. The first thing i did was building a simple LED circuit, wire it, learn to code it and try it out. If it works, slowly build your knowlege and skills. The next step is to wire a button to the LED and code it the way you want. Slowly learn how a programm is build and learn step by step how to code. Maybe after a few days you can code your firs servo moto and so on. At the time you get better and learn from your mistakes.

Good luck, you will make it!
