Active-set method

The active-set method is an optimization technique used primarily for solving constrained optimization problems. In these problems, the objective is to minimize or maximize a function subject to certain constraints, which can be equalities or inequalities. The active-set method is particularly useful when dealing with linear and nonlinear programming problems. ### Key Concepts: 1. **Constraints**: In constrained optimization, some variables may be restricted to lie within certain bounds or may be subjected to equality or inequality constraints.
