Sequential Decision Making

Sequential decision making involves making a series of choices where each decision affects the next one. Think of it like playing a game: your current move depends on previous moves and can influence future options. In everyday life, this might refer to planning a trip, where each choice—like your route, transportation, or accommodations—builds on the last. These decisions often require weighing risks and benefits, anticipating future outcomes, and adapting as new information becomes available. The goal is to navigate these interconnected decisions effectively to achieve the best overall outcome.
