Description
Hands-On Mathematical Optimization with Python provides a practical guide to optimization, combining mathematical theory with hands-on coding examples. It explores how Python can be used to model problems and obtain the best possible solutions. The book presents a balance of theory and practical applications, covering topics such as linear and network optimization, convex optimization, and optimizations under uncertainty. With accompanying Python code snippets and over 50 Jupyter notebooks available on the author's GitHub, students can put the theory into practice and solve problems inspired by real-life challenges. Numerous exercises are included to sharpen students' understanding of the methods discussed, making this an ideal resource for upper-undergraduate and graduate students in applied mathematics, data science, business, industrial engineering, and operations research.
