Implementing your First Learning Agent - Solving the Mountain Car problem

Well done on making it this far! In previous chapters, we got a good introduction to OpenAI Gym, its features, and how to install, configure, and use it in your own programs. We also discussed the basics of reinforcement learning and what deep reinforcement learning is, and we set up the PyTorch deep learning library to develop deep reinforcement learning applications. In this chapter, you will start developing your first learning agent! You will develop an intelligent agent that will learn how to solve the Mountain Car problem. Gradually in the following chapters, we will solve increasingly challenging problems as you get more comfortable developing reinforcement learning algorithms to solve problems in OpenAI Gym. We will start this chapter by understanding the Mountain Car problem, which has been a popular...
