Title: Great introduction to math programming/optimization
Review: I'm a PhD student in operations research, and this is a great operations research book. Its sometimes confusing that it has so many names: Mathematical programming, linear programming (and non-linear), industrial engineering, operations research, optimization etc.So this is an optimization book, not a computer programming book. Mathematical programming refers to both linear and non-linear optimization. I would recommend this as an introductory book in both the theory and the modeling aspect of operations research/ linear and non-linear optimization.For more advanced theory I would recommend the following (advanced undergrads and graduate students):Linear Programming (LP): Introduction to Linear Programming by Bertsimas and Tsitsiklis.Non-Linear Programming (NLP): Convex Optimization by Boyd and VandenbergheBoth LP and NLP: Linear and Nonlinear Programming by David G. Luenberger and Yinyu Yeenjoy!
Is the review positive or negative?
