For a long time I've always thought of dynamic programming as this mysterious, unintuitive concept that was never really taught in computer science. However, after reading this chapter I realized that I have been taught some aspects of dynamic programming, albeit more implicitly. I still feel I lack the intuition to truly implement it effectively, but I can see myself developing that quickly as we continue.
The biggest concern I had in this section was Bellman's optimality principle. The concept itself made sense, but I struggle to wrap my head around its application in the example provided in the text.
