What measure theory is about
It's about counting, but when things get too large.
Put otherwise, it's about addition of positive numbers, but when these numbers are far too many.
The principle of dynamic programming
max_{x,y} [f(x) + g(x,y)] = max_x [f(x) + max_y g(x,y)]
The bottom line
Nuestras horas son minutos cuando esperamos saber y siglos cuando sabemos lo que se puede aprender.(Our hours are minutes when we wait to learn and centuries when we know what is to be learnt.) --António Machado
Αγεωμέτρητος μηδείς εισίτω.
(Those who do not know geometry may not enter.) --Plato
Sapere Aude! Habe Muth, dich deines eigenen Verstandes zu bedienen!
(Dare to know! Have courage to use your own reason!) --Kant
