 ## Introduction
-This package was created with implement different computational routines that can be applied to 
-solve pricing problems, that are usually presented in Finance and Actuarial Science.
-
-Here a list of the main numerical methods implemented inside CFINI. Many of this functions are 
-coded with C++ by employing the packages Rcpp and RcppEigen.
-
-- Pricing with trees
-- Pricing with multinomial trees
-- Ordinary differential equation solver implemented with the predictor-corrector method
-- Diffusion solver with Euler implicit scheme
-- Diffusion solver with Crank-Nicolson scheme
-
-The different methods in the CFINI package are implemented based on the concepts and algorithms
-introduced in the following sources of information:
-
-- The two volume book [Stochastic Calculus for Finance I and II](https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-22527-2)
