Further to my question yesterday how do you know if a pricing engine uses a Trinomial tree?

You'll have to look at the documentation or the code to be sure. In general, though, tree-based pricing engines using short-rate models all use trinomial trees.  Binomial trees are used for modeling stocks.

Thanks I've been looking through the books and the code. Also your YouTube videos.  All really great.  I can't believe how much is there and all open.

I also looked at www.opensourcerisk.org an amazing project using QuantLib

Have a good weekend.
