[R] Yield-to-Maturity problem

[Marc Schwartz]

Hi,

Another resource would be R-SIG-Finance, which is an R e-mail list focused in this domain:

  https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-finance <https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-finance>

as well as the Finance Task View:

  https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Finance.html <https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Finance.html>


Regards,

Marc Schwartz
