tl; dr
- the goal of optimization is to find the best solution to a problem out of a large set of possible solutions (or any feasible solution).
- all optimization problems have the following elements:
- the objective: the quantity you want to optimize. an optimal solution is one for which the value of the objective function is the best, i.e. max or min.
- the constraints: restrictions on the set of possible solutions, based on the specific requirements of the problem. a feasible solution is one that satisfies all the given constraints for the problem, without necessarily being optimal.
- google's or-tools is an open-source software for combinatorial optimization, which seeks to find the best solution to a problem out of a very large set of possible solutions.
