Forward-rate term structure 
<p>
This abstract class acts as an adapter to <a class="el" href="class_quant_lib_1_1_term_structure.html" title="Basic term-structure functionality.">TermStructure</a> allowing the programmer to implement only the <code>forwardImpl(const Date&amp;, bool)</code> method in derived classes. Zero yields and discounts are calculated from forwards.<p>
Rates are assumed to be annual continuous compounding. <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
