Introduction
In the realm of optimization, linear programming often takes the spotlight. However, there is a powerful counterpart that tackles more complex problems: non-linear programming. In this article, we’ll dive into the world of non-linear programming and its practical applications. Through a captivating real-world example, we’ll explore how non-linear programming techniques can unlock optimal solutions in the face of non-linear constraints.
The main objective of this article is to introduce the reader to optimization problems that are non-linear in nature and the introduce tools to solve them both conceptually and through code.
