Aleksej.Finance
A comprehensive C# quantitative finance library with 180+ pure-math static methods and zero external dependencies. Every method is public static and takes explicit inputs — no state, no configuration, no side effects.
Built to back the Excel Finance Add-In and usable standalone in any .NET project.

Design Principles
- Zero dependencies — no NuGet packages, no external libraries
- Pure functions — every method is
public static, takes all inputs explicitly, no global state - Numerically stable — Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting, Box-Muller transform, Abramowitz & Stegun CDF, Brent's method, Newton-Raphson
- Modular — outputs of one method are valid inputs to another:
YieldCurve.Bootstrap()→InterestRateSwap.SwapValue()→InterestRateSwap.DV01()
