Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a simple environment and describe how you would simulate a series of episodes to implement the REINFORCE algorithm. Include how you would gather rewards and update the policy.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the structure of your environment and how episodes are defined.

Question 2

Discuss the implications of employing a high learning rate in the REINFORCE algorithm. What impact could it have on policy optimization?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the balance between learning speed and stability.
