What is the best way to learn combinatorial optimization, online convex optimization, and submodular function maximization? I currently found textbooks online and papers related to these topics but I am looking for example problems to solve, specifically for submodular function maximization, with python/c++ code to solve the problem. Are there any recommendations and online resources which would enable to learn and apply these topics quickly? My mathematics background is up to graduate school-level linear algebra and probability.
