FinanceCore

This repository contains foundational types and routines that are used in other packages. Users should generally prefer to use other JuliaActuary packages which will re-export the FinanceCore data/methods as necessary.

If you are extending a function or type as a user or developer, then it would be a good idea to import/use this package directly.

TODO

• What's the best pattern for exports? Should this package export anything and have dependent packages @reexport? Does that make it so users would still see Yields.Rate?
• Should this package precompile anything, or let the downstream packages do that? Or do it here unless the downstream extend the types and/or methods?
