Definition: The principle of optimality is the basic principle of dynamic programming, which was developed by Richard Bellman: that an optimal path has the property that whatever the initial
conditions and control variables (choices) over some initial period, the
control (or decision variables) chosen over the remaining period must be
optimal for the remaining problem, with the state resulting from the early
decisions taken to be the initial condition.
