I am new to Octave. I am using Ubuntu 11.10 and Octave 3.2.4 and I installed octave-financial package.
>From financial package there is a rate() function. This is what I get: octave:25> rate(30, 510.19, 10000) error: error creating function handle "@pv (x, 30, 510.19, 0, "e") - 10000" error: called from: error: /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/optimization/fsolve.m at line 138, column 9 error: /usr/share/octave/packages/3.2/financial-0.3.2/rate.m at line 69, column 5 I tested pmt(), pv() and nper() without errors. The values are: pmt = 510.19 pv = 10000 nper = 30 rate = 0.03 (3%) Is it reproducible? Cheers.
