Start point for Newbie

Dev Null-6
Hello All,

I am new to Quanlib. I would like to contribute something to QuantLib.

Could you please guide me where is the start point for QuantLib?

Thanks,
Dev Null

Dear Dev Null

The very first thing you can do to actually understand QuantLib enough to be able to use and contribute is to have a purpose. I'd advise you to take your favorite financial calculation and try to implement it in QuantLib.

Also look at the examples (including the test suite) and the code.

I am working (slowly) on a documentation for beginners. Perhaps it might help some. It's at http://sites.google.com/site/tgwena/ It still has a long way to go.

The second most important document to look at (first is the code) is the documentation by Luigi at http://sites.google.com/site/luigiballabio/qlbook

(I do hope your name does not reflect on you)
