Quick question about usage

[sword134]

Hello, I recently stumbled across this repo but wanted to know what the repo usage is before downloading it for my self. I understand that the repo is for pricing options but what practical usage does it have? Is it able to give a forecast of future value or is it merely trying to predict what the price of an option should be right now vs what it is on the exchange?

@sword134 Thank you for your feedback. The script is for calculating the option price, based on a few theoretical assumptions.

@boyac so its meant as the theoretical true price of an option vs what it is currently being sold for?

[boyac]

@sword134 you can say that.

I think it's more for academic purposes.
