BermudanSwaption.cpp

This example prices a bermudan swaption using different models calibrated to market swaptions. The calibration examples include Hull and White's using both an analytic formula as well as numerically, and Black and Karasinski's model. Using these three calibrations, Bermudan swaptions are priced for at-the-money, out-of-the-money and in-the-money volatilities.
