Detailed Description

Analytic pricing engine for American vanilla options with digital payoff.

Possible enhancements

add more greeks (as of now only delta and rho available)

Tests

*

the correctness of the returned value in case of cash-or-nothing at-hit digital payoff is tested by reproducing results available in literature.

*

the correctness of the returned value in case of asset-or-nothing at-hit digital payoff is tested by reproducing results available in literature.

*

the correctness of the returned value in case of cash-or-nothing at-expiry digital payoff is tested by reproducing results available in literature.

*

the correctness of the returned value in case of asset-or-nothing at-expiry digital payoff is tested by reproducing results available in literature.

*

the correctness of the returned greeks in case of cash-or-nothing at-hit digital payoff is tested by reproducing numerical derivatives.
