This book's primary objective is to educate aspiring finance
professionals about mathematics and computation in the context of
financial derivatives. The authors offer a balance of traditional
coverage and technology to fill the void between highly
mathematical books and broad finance books. The focus of this book
is twofold: To partner mathematics with corresponding intuition
rather than diving so deeply into the mathematics that the material
is inaccessible to many readers. To build reader intuition,
understanding and confidence through three types of computer
applications that help the reader understand the mathematics of the
models. Unlike many books on financial derivatives requiring
stochastic calculus, this book presents the fundamental theories
based on only undergraduate probability knowledge. A key feature of
this book is its focus on applying models in three programming
languages -R, Mathematica and EXCEL. Each of the three approaches
offers unique advantages. The computer applications are carefully
introduced and require little prior programming background. The
financial derivative models that are included in this book are
virtually identical to those covered in the top financial
professional certificate programs in finance. The overlap of
financial models between these programs and this book is broad and
deep.
