Master Yoda, a character in the movie Star Wars series, a veteran of the Jedi Council, was respected and lived in seclusion in the swamp of dagobah for the rest of his life. Yoda, 900, has been a disciple for more than eight centuries. He is deep in the Force. Among his last students are the most important (and reckless) Jedi knights of modern times, such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and luke skywalker, and Count Dooku who defected earlier.

The word "Yoda" comes from Sanskrit. The meaning of "warrior" may also come from the word "yoga", which symbolizes Yoda's calm and profound bearing.
