  ## Why choose `rlcode/reinforcement-learning`?
  
  Unlike complex libraries, this repository prioritizes clarity and direct understanding. Each algorithm is implemented in a single, self-contained Python file, free from extensive abstractions, making it an ideal resource for:
  
  - **Learning:** Grasping the fundamental mechanics of each algorithm.
  - **Experimentation:** Easily modifying and testing variations of core RL concepts.
  - **Reference:** A straightforward codebase for quick lookup and comparison.
