What is mathematical programming

Mathematical programming is a field of mathematics that deals with the optimization of complex systems and processes. It has a rich history that dates back to the 1940s when George Dantzig, an American mathematician, developed the simplex method for solving linear programming problems. Since then, it has grown into a vast and dynamic discipline that has found applications in various fields such as finance, transportation, engineering, and operations research.

I drive a Pareto

Not an Italian luxury car.
No. Pareto was the Italian economist that came up with the 80/20 rule. He figured out 20% of the richest families held 80% of the wealth (this is probably worse nowadays). More generally stated, the 80/20 rule says that 80% of the results come from 20% of the inputs, you spend 80% of your time doing 20% of your tasks, etc, etc.
