C++ Design Patterns and Derivatives Pricing (Mathematics, Finance and Risk)
 |
|
Описание:
This book introduces several design patterns using finance as an example. The book is pretty thin for a $50 book, and can be read in under a week easily.I would recommend this book to MS/PHD students who want to become quants, but did not read the GoF book yet. Overall, the book is not too bad, if you are willing to spend $50 on it(library?).
The author delivers books like hot buns, which does not look good to me. Quality beats Quantity.
Pros:
+ the code is clean and easy to read
+ covers Monte Carlo and Trees, also Excel briefly
+ the explanations are clear
+ the material progresses from easy to hard nicely
Cons:
- high price
- source code is not readily available, you would have to download it from different sources, and it will differ from the book, no makefiles
- no big projects for the reader
- PDE & interest rate models are not covered at all
- no discussion of greeks for some reason
- some important patterns are not covered
- no errata
