In most of the reinforcement learning literature, I see that there is a shaded area in the graphs. I couldn't understand what it exactly represents?

For example, from the A3C paper:

enter image description here

Or another example from the PPO paper:

Is it for multiple runs or it's for something else? How I can reproduce such graphs (which library and what type of data from my training episode do I need)?

They train the agent multiple times, then plot the mean +- standard deviation of the agent performance (the shaded region is representing the standard deviation).
