+- multi-armed bandits
+	- choose action from k possibilities
+		- receive a reward
+	- reward is dependent on the action taken
+	- explore vs. exploit
+		- exploit is taking the greedy action, the on that is known to produce the greatest reward
+		- explore is taking other random actions to learn values
+		- a combination of the two produce the best results
+	- $\varepsilon$-greedy strategy
+		- with probability $\varepsilon$ take a random action, with probability $1-\varepsilon$ take the best known actions
+		- $\varepsilon$ often starts high and decreases over time
