UPDATE: negative rate

[Vijay Vishvas Dharap]

First of all sorry for sending 3 messages.

Ok let me clarify more.

I browsed fin.c file from cvs from src/calculation directory.

And I just used the functions[_fi_calc_interest and functions required
by it] listed there as I cannot use the whole application as its ported
only to linux.
Furthermore I converted the functions listed in that place into java
class for my work.

I have attached the code that I used in java. Only minimal changes were
done from actual C source code needed for compilation purposes.

Now when I use this function of rate and provide the specified values,
I get positive value of the rate.
But same values when given to VB function rate, gives me negative rate.
i.e. -1.98245150

Whenever the VB rate is giving positive values, the values by my rate
function matches with the VB rate function. But for negative values, I
don't get correct values.
Now probably I am clearer about discrepancy I am talking about.

Regards,
Vijay
