The backdrop to this follows on from the point Laeeth made about quantlib. Being able to do the calculations is one thing, but visualizing the data and results is where the real hook is.

It's not difficult to embed R inside D. I will finish a forecasting project in early November, and will be able to finish it up after that. That will bring R's full plotting capabilities to D.
