Awesome! I have always been looking for a book like this. Thanks for sharing. A quick look at the book tells me that this is a handbook of different optimization techniques that can be used under different conditions. Do you know if there's a python/matlab version of the examples mentioned in the book?

The book ships with Julia examples, but most of the algorithms are available in cvxpy [1], scipy.optimize [2] and matlab optimization toolboxes [3].
