Optimal control is a branch of control theory that deals with finding the best possible control strategy for

a given system. It aims to minimize or maximize a certain performance measure, considering constraints
and dynamics. Applications range from engineering and economics to biology. Methods like Pontryagin's
Maximum Principle and dynamic programming are commonly used to solve optimal control problems. It
plays a crucial role in designing efficient and effective control systems for various real-world scenarios.
