Reinforcement learning (RL) is a state or action value based machine learning method which approximately solves large-scale Markov Decision Process (MDP) or Semi-Markov Decision Process (SMDP). A multi-step RL algorithm called Sarsa(,k) is proposed, which is a compromised variation of Sarsa and Sarsa(). It is equivalent to Sarsa if k is 1 and is equivalent to Sarsa() if k is infinite. Sarsa(,k) adjust its performance by setting k value. Two forms of Sarsa(,k), forward view Sarsa(,k) and backward view Sarsa(,k), are constructed and proved equivalent in off-line updating.
