We present in this notebook the **indirect simple shooting** method based on the [Pontryagin Maximum Principle (PMP)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontryagin%27s_maximum_principle) to solve a smooth optimal control problem. By smooth, we mean that the maximization condition of the PMP gives a control law in feedback form (i.e. with respect to the state and the costate) at least [continuously differentiable](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoothness#Differentiability_classes).
