Dear package maintainer,
 
this notification has been generated automatically.
Your package fOptions_2110.77.tar.gz did *not* pass 'R CMD check' on
Windows and will be omitted from the corresponding CRAN directory
(CRAN/bin/windows64/contrib/2.11/).
Please check the attached log-file and consider to resubmit a version
with increased version number that passes R CMD check on Windows.
R version 2.11.0 (2010-04-22)
 
All the best,
Uwe Ligges
(Maintainer of binary packages for Windows)

> ## How to perform a Monte Carlo Simulation?
>    
> ## First Step:
>    # Write a function to generate the option's innovations. 
>    # Use scrambled normal Sobol numbers:
>    sobolInnovations = function(mcSteps, pathLength, init, ...) {
+      # Create Normal Sobol Innovations:
+      innovations = rnorm.sobol(mcSteps, pathLength, init, ...)
+      # Return Value:
+      innovations }
>     
> ## Second Step: 
>    # Write a function to generate the option's price paths.  
>    # Use a Wiener path:
>    wienerPath = function(eps) { 
+      # Note, the option parameters must be globally defined!
+      # Generate the Paths:
+      path = (b-sigma*sigma/2)*delta.t + sigma*sqrt(delta.t)*eps
+      # Return Value:
+      path }
>       
> ## Third Step: 
>    # Write a function for the option's payoff
>    
>    # Example 1: use the payoff for a plain Vanilla Call or Put:
>    plainVanillaPayoff = function(path) { 
+      # Note, the option parameters must be globally defined!
+      # Compute the Call/Put Payoff Value:
+      ST = S*exp(sum(path))
+      if (TypeFlag == "c") payoff = exp(-r*Time)*max(ST-X, 0)
+      if (TypeFlag == "p") payoff = exp(-r*Time)*max(0, X-ST)
+      # Return Value:
+      payoff }
>    
>    # Example 2: use the payoff for an arithmetic Asian Call or Put:
>    arithmeticAsianPayoff = function(path) { 
+      # Note, the option parameters must be globally defined!
+      # Compute the Call/Put Payoff Value:
+      SM = mean(S*exp(cumsum(path)))
+      if (TypeFlag == "c") payoff = exp(-r*Time)*max(SM-X, 0)
+      if (TypeFlag == "p") payoff = exp(-r*Time)*max(0, X-SM)
+      # Return Value:
+      payoff }
> 
> ## Final Step: 
>    # Set Global Parameters for the plain Vanilla / arithmetic Asian Options:
>    TypeFlag <<- "c"; S <<- 100; X <<- 100
>    Time <<- 1/12; sigma <<- 0.4; r <<- 0.10; b <<- 0.1
>    
>    # Do the Asian Simulation with scrambled random numbers:
>    mc = MonteCarloOption(delta.t = 1/360, pathLength = 30, mcSteps = 5000, 
+      mcLoops = 50, init = TRUE, innovations.gen = sobolInnovations, 
+      path.gen = wienerPath, payoff.calc = arithmeticAsianPayoff, 
+      antithetic = TRUE, standardization = FALSE, trace = TRUE, 
+      scrambling = 2, seed = 4711)
