Comment (by was):
I started looking at it but hit a build issue with sage-5.9. I
noticed a few little things:
- the examples should be indented 4 more spaces
- typo in this line: " - ''vol'' -- The volatilitry "
- space after "vol," here: def black_scholes(spot_price,
strike_price, time_to_maturity, risk_free_rate, vol,opt_type): "
- delete blank line 11
- I think the input lines should have a single backtick around
variable names, not 2 single quotes.
- delete blank line 43
- give a reference for the formula you're using
- are there generalizations you plan to implement later?
- why should somebody believe the examples you give? Are they
replicating some examples elsewhere (e.g., on a wikipedia page)?
