# Numerical Optimization Formulation

Turn a problem described in words into one you can solve

## What this does

Somebody has described a problem in prose and you have to turn it into the parameters, decisions, constraints and objective an optimizer expects. This covers the concepts behind linear, mixed-integer, and quadratic problems and the patterns for formulating them. It is about the thinking, not the code - there is no API here.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Translate a written problem into a formulation
- Work out the decisions, constraints and objective
- Get straight on what LP, MILP and QP actually mean

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Numerical Optimization Formulation

Concepts and formulation patterns for LP, MILP, and QP: reading a problem described in text and turning it into parameters, constraints, decisions, and an objective.

Concepts only, deliberately - no API is covered here.

## Questions

### Is Numerical Optimization Formulation safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Numerical Optimization Formulation and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit f3ebc6731df0, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/cuopt-numerical-optimization-formulation.

### How do I install Numerical Optimization Formulation?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/cuopt-numerical-optimization-formulation on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuopt/tree/f3ebc6731df081da00444883aff8d7eee5196162/skills/cuopt-numerical-optimization-formulation. Install from that link, not the branch.
