The package contains the Java code, libraries and Javadoc for implementation of
binomial option pricing model and Newton method for finding roots of a function.
The distribution contains the classes implementing the two methods and simple
examples that use these classes. Please refer to Javadoc for more detailed
explanations.

The directory structure of the distribution is as follows:
root ---- bin: contains Windows startup scripts for the examples
      +-- conf: contains configuration files
      +-- docs: contains Javadoc for the classes in this distribution
      +-- lib: contain jar file with binary code
      +-- logs: contains log fies (after running the code with appropriate
      |         configuration)
      +-- src: contains the source code

If the files in the bin directory do not have .bat extension, please rename them
so that they are executable on the Windows platform. The scripts should be
executed from the distribution root directory.

When startup scripts from the bin directory are run, they will set the classpath
to contain conf directory and the jar file from the lib directory. The logging
framework configuration will be read from the conf\logging.properties file.
