+# Optimizations
+
+**TL;DR**
+
+Optimization is an process or methodolgy that is used to make something(for instance any program) to run faster(making it effective) while fulfilling its functionality normally.
+
+
+## What Is an Optimization
+The code optimization in the synthesis phase is a program transformation technique,in which the intermediate code is tend to be improved and thus will be consuming fewer resources (i.e. CPU, Memory), hence faster-running machine code will result.

+
+
+## Why You Might Want the Optimization
+
+Optimization overall helps to achieve the same goal with lower consumption of resources hence this practice should be followed.
+So optimization helps to:
+
+- High compilation speed and low consumption of space.
+- Code optimizers are used to avoid overburn of manual optimization as it involves a lot of time.
+- Re-usability can be achieved while following optimization.
+
+## How to Implement the Optimization
+1. **Optimize your Code using Appropriate Algorithm**
+2. **Optimize Your Code for Memory**
+4. **Using Operators** : Most basic operations like +=, -=, and *=, when applied on basic data types could slow down the program as well. 
+5. **Problems with Functions** : For example, if you have a code like this, it might be a bad thing.
+```
+for(int i=1; i<=10; ++i)
+     DoSomething(i);
+``` 
+6. **Optimizing Loops**
+7. **Data Structure Optimization**
+
+## Common Pitfalls of the Optimization
+
+- Bigger code base is the major problem faced due to time based optimizations.
+- Chances to improve and make code run faster never ends hence making Performance optimization a never-ending process.
+- Coding standards are compromised sometimes to achieve optimization.
