Optimization

Optimization finds the input that makes a function as large or small as possible, sometimes under a constraint. The method of Lagrange multipliers handles constrained problems, like maximizing f(x,y) = xy subject to a fixed perimeter 2x + 2y = 20, by finding where the function's and constraint's rates of change align, giving x = y = 5, for a maximum area of 25.
