Update optimizers.py
Readability is important and has utility at iterating at software in
general. A PR doesn’t need a logical change to have utility at a given
implementation. Can you say more about the bugs this implementation
introduces?

I made several refinements and optimizations to improve the efficiency, readability, and maintainability of the code:

Code Structure Optimization:

Consolidated imports to improve readability and reduce clutter. Grouped related code blocks together for better coherence. Error Handling Improvement:

Simplified error handling by raising meaningful exceptions when encountering errors. This enhances code robustness and makes debugging easier. Efficient Data Handling:

Optimized data handling by directly returning default values if the input is None, eliminating unnecessary computations and enhancing code efficiency. Simplified Logic:

Simplified logic by removing redundant conditions and unnecessary checks, resulting in cleaner and more concise code. Optimized Imports:

Removed redundant imports and unused dependencies to streamline the codebase and reduce overhead. Enhanced Readability:

Improved code readability by using descriptive variable names and concise comments where necessary, aiding in code comprehension and maintenance. Consistent Naming Conventions:

Ensured consistent naming conventions throughout the codebase for better clarity and maintainability.

These changes collectively refine the codebase, making it more efficient, readable, and maintainable while preserving its functionality and purpose.
