Good day all, I have two quick questions. 1 - Is [GitHub - rawls238/Bandits.jl: Implementation of multi-armed bandits in Julia](https://github.com/rawls238/Bandits.jl) the only implementation for the multi-armed bandits problem in Julia? 2- I am getting an error loading the package in Pluto: `package Bandits.jl could not load because it failed to initialize.` Does that mean I have to install Bandits locally on the machine and only use the import keyword to load specific functions? Thanks for your assistance

There are other packages like CombinatorialBandits.jl and more general packages for reinforcement learning.

Thanks! I’ve seen the CombinatorialBandits.jl. But I wanted an implementation that allows for only one action selection at a time. Maybe I should try out the Combinatioral version and force only action and see.
