Use treeviewer to display the path of interest rates expressed in inverse-discount notation.

treeviewer(HWTree)

Figure Tree Viewer contains 2 axes objects and other objects of type uicontrol. Axes object 1 contains 41 objects of type line. Axes object 2 is empty.

Use cvtree to convert the inverse-discount notation to interest-rate notation.

use treeviewer to display the converted tree, showing the path of interest rates expressed as forward rates.

treeviewer(RTree)

Figure Tree Viewer contains 2 axes objects and other objects of type uicontrol. Axes object 1 contains 41 objects of type line. Axes object 2 is empty.
