Beginning with an introduction to the concept of optimization, the book presents the key ingredients of 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, are available on the author's GitHub.
