# The “Deep” in Reinforcement Learning [[deep-rl]]
<Tip>
What we've talked about so far is Reinforcement Learning. But where does the "Deep" come into play?
</Tip>
Deep Reinforcement Learning introduces **deep neural networks to solve Reinforcement Learning problems** — hence the name “deep”.
For instance, in the next unit, well learn about two value-based algorithms: Q-Learning (classic Reinforcement Learning) and then Deep Q-Learning.
Youll see the difference is that, in the first approach, **we use a traditional algorithm** to create a Q table that helps us find what action to take for each state.
In the second approach, **we will use a Neural Network** (to approximate the Q value).
