unconstrained optimization

Unconstrained optimization is a mathematical approach used to find the best possible solution to a problem without any restrictions or limits on the variables involved. For instance, imagine trying to maximize profits for a business without any constraints on resources, time, or budget. The goal is to identify the optimal point where the desired outcome—like profit, efficiency, or utility—is at its highest. This method helps in decision-making across various fields, including economics, engineering, and operations research, enabling organizations to achieve their objectives more effectively.
