Wrong remainder?

Many thanks @Zinoex for the great package and doc!

Only 80% sure, but the remainder of the O-maximization algorithm should be 1 - sum(p) right?

Also, something that puzzled me is that the ordering is first in ascending order in the doc (for O-minimization), and then in descending order (for O-maximization). But I didn't change anything yet.

You are absolutely right about the remainder in O-maximization! Thanks for spotting that.

About the ascending then descending question, I think the confusion is rather about the naming O-maximization. It means order maximization, thus when we minimize the expected value of V, we maximize the mass in ascending order of V (assign most probability to the states with the least value in V).

Does that help your understanding? Please do feel free to add a comment in the docs to explain this peculiarity.

Okay it's clearer!

In my case I wanted to maximize the sum, so I take the inverse order in the algorithm. I thought it was O-maximization, but it is in fact O-minimization.

Thanks!
