Introduction\n\n**Download our book from \u003chttps://thomasweise.github.io/oa/optimization_algorithms.pdf\u003e.**\n\nWith the book *\"[Optimization Algorithms](https://thomasweise.github.io/oa/optimization_algorithms.pdf)\"* we try to develop an accessible and easy-to-read introduction to optimization, optimization algorithms, and, in particular, metaheuristics.\nWe will do this by first building a general framework structure for optimization problems.\nWe then approach the algorithms that have been developed to solve such problems from bottom-up, starting with simple approaches and step-by-step moving to more advanced methods.\n\n**If you have any comments or suggestions regarding the book, or if you spotted an error or typo, please feel free to submit an [issue here](https://github.com/thomasWeise/oa/issues).**\nYour feedback would help us to improve the book.\n\n## 2.
