Example in documentation appears incorrect

[aravindr93]

Hello. I've just started using rllab, and went through the documentation today. The example of REINFORCE given here appears to be incorrect, or I don't fully understand the implementation.
https://rllab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/implement_algo_basic.html

Under the heading Constructing the computational graph, a surrogate function is defined and it's gradient taken. However, isn't the surrogate function itself the gradient? This is as per the pseudo code given in the Preliminary section. Why do we need to compute the gradient again?

Kindly update the documentation or clarify. Thanks!

It was only a minor typo, but can be understood easily in the context of the whole page. My bad. I'm closing the issue.
