SDE
Stochastic Differential Equations


SDE is a FORTRAN90 library which illustrates the properties of stochastic differential equations and some algorithms for handling them, making graphics files for processing and display by gnuplot, by Desmond Higham.

The library requires access to the QR_SOLVE library as well.

The original version of these routines is available at "http://www.maths.strath.ac.uk/~aas96106/algfiles.html".
