More precisely:\n\n- under the\n`algos/`\n\nfolder, the Pytorch-based implementation of the different algorihms covered in the book, from MC to PPO. - under the\n`supplementary/`\n\nfolder, you can find detailed explanations and rigorous proofs for the dynamic programming algorithms briefly covered in the book. This is a document I wrote in 2021.\n\nMore material is subject to be added along the way in this repo.\n\nYou can print one for youself [here](https://www.amazon.fr/Little-Book-Reinforcement-Learning/dp/B0H3W5PJH6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3H05NR7B52374&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.iKUkH6NQiRsFi6D8ARdAPQ.DYkU1dqtml5IBfMqGdpZBANbkpYtC4qDpIUYvxVtRJA&dib_tag=se&keywords=alexandre+torres+leguet&qid=1783721422&sprefix=alexandre+tor%2Caps%2C212&sr=8-1).\n\nVersions of the book :\n\n- V1 (June 2026)\n\nThe book is distributed under a non-commercial Creative Commons license (CC BY-SA 4.0).", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/the-little-book-of-reinforcement-learning", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/alxndrTL/little-book-rl/", "published_at": "2026-07-16 22:27:22+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-16 23:29:56.044926+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["machine-learning"], "entities": ["Little Book of Reinforcement Learning", "PyTorch", "Amazon", "Creative Commons"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/the-little-book-of-reinforcement-learning", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/the-little-book-of-reinforcement-learning.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/the-little-book-of-reinforcement-learning.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/the-little-book-of-reinforcement-learning.jsonld"}}
