sigma	The volatility
r	The risk-free continuously compounded interest rate
delta	The annualized dividend rate
h	the number of periods betwen 0 and T, where each period is of length 1/h
T	the expiration time

Details

Uses formulas for u and d presented by Cox in his forward tree model. Note that the option price converges to the Black-Scholes option price

Examples

recursiveTree(S=41,K=40,sigma=0.3,r=0.08,delta=0,h=5,T=1)

Example output
