<FONT FACE="Arial,Helvetica,Monaco"><FONT SIZE="2">Rmetrics is a
collection of several hundreds of functions which may be useful for
teaching "Financial Engineering" and "Computational
Finance". These functions are available for R, “GNU’s
S”. This is a freely available language and environment for
statistical computing and graphics which provides a wide variety of
statistical and graphical techniques.</FONT></FONT>
</P>
<P>
<FONT FACE="Arial,Helvetica,Monaco"><FONT SIZE="2">The functions have
their source in algorithms and functions written by myself, my
students, and many other authors. A major aim is to bring financial
algorithms and concepts together under a common software platform and
to make it public available mainly for teaching financial engineering
and computational finance. Rmetrics is not part of
<A HREF="http://cran.r-project.org">CRAN</A>,
Rmetrics is an initiative by its own. Rmetrics has some aims similar
like <A HREF="http://www.bioconductor.org">Bioconductor</A>. Rmetrics
is an open source and open development software project.</FONT></FONT>
