Right, I get what an LP is. As I said in the other thread, I'm mainly trying to use charity to the opening post to find a way it can be meaningful. With an idea that mayhap you could use RL to try and explore a solution space that you don't know the penalty for non-compliance to a solution. Specifically, use LP to craft a plan in an iteration of scenarios that is varying a cost function through iterations. I suspect I'm fumbling in the multi period planning realm more so than the RL one, here. I further suspect, though, that it is more "if you can formalize your problem such that LP solves it, use LP." That is, the opening post was largely just nonsensical?
