Colin,
Better than that, just send me your computer and software and I will
put it in for you!
Okay so maybe that wouldn't work for you but how about I teach you
where to get loads of information?
Go to the group link section and look at all the links there. You
will find some that start with the word formula. There is one in
particular that we have all come to rely on and I'm going to save
you the trouble of looking it up. Here is the link:
http://trader.online.pl/MSZ/!-MSZ-index-en.html
When you get there you will find alphabetical letters across the
top. Just click on the "S" and you will be taken to a page with
loads of stochastic formulas.
Hope this hepls,
Preston
