Parameters

Compulsory Input Parameters

1:     $\mathrm{calput}$ – string (length ≥ 1)

Determines whether the option is a call or a put.

$\mathbf{calput}=\text{'C'}$

Constraint: $\mathbf{x}\left(\mathit{i}\right)\ge z\text{ and }\mathbf{x}\left(\mathit{i}\right)\le 1/z$, where $z=\mathbf{x02am}\left(\right)$, the safe range parameter, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,\mathbf{m}$.

3:     $\mathrm{s}$ – double scalar

$S$, the price of the underlying asset.

Constraint: $\mathbf{s}\ge z\text{ and }\mathbf{s}\le 1.0/z$, where $z=\mathbf{x02am}\left(\right)$, the safe range parameter.

4:     $\mathrm{k}$ – double scalar

The amount, $K$, to be paid at expiration if the option is in-the-money, i.e., if $\mathbf{s}>\mathbf{x}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$ when $\mathbf{calput}=\text{'C'}$, or if $\mathbf{s}<\mathbf{x}\left(\mathit{i}\right)$ when $\mathbf{calput}=\text{'P'}$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,m$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{k}\ge 0.0$.

5:     $\mathrm{t}\left(\mathbf{n}\right)$ – double array
