Approximate Dynamic Programming by Warren B. Powell

I recently came across an excellent book on approximate dynamic programming by W. Powell. It’s truly a gold mine of computational algorithms for difficult dynamic programming problems.

However, I was wondering if there’s any sample code available online that illustrates the algorithms discussed in the book—ideally in Fortran. I checked the publisher’s website but couldn’t find any supporting material. Without accompanying code, the book feels a bit “dry” to work through.

Any suggestions on where to find relevant code would be greatly appreciated!

Not in Fortran (MATLAB, R, …) but this might be of interest

as he does include a tar file with code

Thanks! The author has a pdf document with solution of several exercises and accompanying code in Python.
