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...

Overview of this book
Many real-world problems can be broken down into tasks that require a series of decisions to be made or actions to be taken. The ability to solve such tasks without a machine being programmed requires a machine to be artificially intelligent and capable of learning to adapt. This book is an easy-to-follow guide to implementing learning algorithms for machine software agents in order to solve discrete or continuous sequential decision making and control tasks.
Hands-On Intelligent Agents with OpenAI Gym takes you through the process of building intelligent agent algorithms using deep reinforcement learning starting from the implementation of the building blocks for configuring, training, logging, visualizing, testing, and monitoring the agent. You will walk through the process of building intelligent agents from scratch to perform a variety of tasks. In the closing chapters, the book provides an overview of the latest learning environments and learning algorithms, along with pointers to more resources that will help you take your deep reinforcement learning skills to the next level.
