Abstract
Some problems in engineering, medicine and economics, among other, consist in finding the best possible decision to achieve a goal while satisfying with certain constraints. Mathematically, these decision-making problems are usually formulated as optimization problems. In this article, we shortly present the most known mathematical programs for certain class of variables and functions. Additionally, we use each mathematical program to solve a relevant problem in the field of power systems and energy. Each section also includes the solution of a small illustrative example, whose python code can be accessed and executed through the corresponding QR codes.
