What Is Mathematical Optimization?

A gentle and visual introduction to the topic of Convex Optimization. (1/3)
This video is the first of a series of three. The plan is as follows:

Part 1: What is (Mathematical) Optimization? (https://youtu.be/AM6BY4btj-M)
Part 2: Convexity and the Principle of (Lagrangian) Duality (https://youtu.be/d0CF3d5aEGc)
Part 3: Algorithms for Convex Optimization (Interior Point Methods). (https://youtu.be/uh1Dk68cfWs)
