A robot is an electro-mechanical or bio-mechanical device or group of devices that can perform autonomous or preprogrammed tasks. A telerobot may act under the direct control of a human, such as the robotic arm on a space shuttle, or autonomously under the control of a programmed computer. Robots may be used to perform tasks that are too dangerous or difficult for humans, such as radioactive waste clean-up, or may be used to automate mindless repetitive tasks that should be performed with more precision by a robot than by a human, such as automobile production.
Robot can also be used to describe an intelligent mechanical device in the form of a human, a humanoid robot. This form of robot, often referred to as an android, is common in science fiction. Such robots, however, have yet to become commonplace, especially considering the difficulties and expenses involved in making a bipedal machine balance itself or move in human-like ways without losing balance. Japan is at the forefront of robotics research.
robotics is the science and technology of robots, their design, manufacture, and application. Robotics requires a working knowledge of electronics, mechanics, and software and a person working in the field has become known as a roboticist.
so,if u wish to construct or work with robots..i suggest u for robotics..

Best thing to do is watch a movie called "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey".
Basically, evil robot Bill and Teds from the future come back to try and kill the real Bill and Ted.
The movie effectively shows the behaviour and language of robots:
"You're totally robot!"
"So are you dude!"
"We're total metalheads!!!!"
You actually get to see the inside of the robots which I think is very informational and I took information about the robot and used it to formulate my own evil plans.
