Difference between quantlib version 1.4 and 1.0

seawater

Hi may i get some help here. I need to understand about the major changes between quantlib version 1.0 and 1.4 in terms of products they could support and major upgrades or new things affecting building curves especially for fixed coupon rate bonds.

For above changes, what are already featured in python and excel respectively? For those not yet incorporated, could you please share some ideas and potential challenges for users to export it themselves.

Thanks a lot!

Here you go:

http://quantlib.org/reference/history.html

Unsure about Excel.

After you install the Python package however, run interactive Python and 

"from QuantLib import *"

then

"QuantLib"

will give you an idea of what's available.

Oh, and "help(BondFunctions)" for example is very useful too!

Hi thank you for your prompt reply. Let me check out the details. Would you recommend using excel or python going forward? Not sure which is better supported and more up to date with latest quantlib.

Someone else will have to comment about the Excel status.

Lots of QL is supported in Python - not everything though.

Check out both I suppose.

Luigi also has screencasts which I found really helpful. Set me straight on a few things.


I also wrote some blogposts about QL and Python:


which may help a little.

To see what QuantLib functionality is supported in QuantLibXL, you
could start here:
