This practical guide to optimization combines mathematical theory with


hands-on coding examples to explore how Python can be used to
model problems and obtain the best possible solutions. Presenting a
balance of theory and practical applications, it is the ideal resource for
upper-undergraduate and graduate students in applied mathematics,
data science, business, industrial engineering and operations research,
as well as practitioners in related fields. Beginning with an introduction
to the concept of optimization, this text presents the key ingredients of Find out more
an optimization problem and the choices one needs to make when
modeling a real-life problem mathematically. Topics covered range
from linear and network optimization to convex optimization and
optimizations under uncertainty. The book's Python code snippets,
alongside more than 50 Jupyter notebooks on the author's GitHub,
allow students to put the theory into practice and solve problems
inspired by real-life challenges, while numerous exercises sharpen
students' understanding of the methods discussed. View resources
