Compute the utility of each parent/decision tuple and return a DecisionSample.
Compute the utility of each parent/decision tuple and return a DecisionSample. Each decision algorithm must define how this is done since it is used to set the policy for a decision. For sampling algorithms, this will me a map of parent/decision tuples to a utility and a weight for that combination. For factored algorithms, the DecisionSample will contain the exact expected utility with a weight of 1.0.

Test Metropolis-Hastings Decisions by repeatedly running a single step from the same initial state.
Test Metropolis-Hastings Decisions by repeatedly running a single step from the same initial state. For each of a set of predicates, the fraction of times the predicate is satisfied by the resulting state is returned. By the resulting state, we mean the new state if it is accepted and the original state if not.
