		Extracts Risk Neutral Densities of Prices, Money Market Rates and
		Government Bond Yields from Interest Rates Futures Options
		Prices // Provides with parametric Risk Neutral Densities
		(RNDs) and cumulative densities of futures prices on fixed-
		income products. It relies on options on Short Term Interest
		Rate futures or options on government bond futures. It models
		the futures price as a mixture of lognormal densities. It also
		provides with the RNDs and cumulative densities of the money
		market rate or the government bond yield inferred from the
		futures price, using the RND of the futures price. The package
		also provides with the probability attached to each bond in the
		delivery basket of a government bond futures to be the cheapest
		at maturity, and also the non parametric distribution of the
		spread between two bond yields, using two RNDs based on options
		on bond futures of the same maturity. The package leverages on
		the works of Melick, W. R. and Thomas, C. P. (1997)
		doi:10.2307/2331318 and B. Bahra (1998) doi:10.2139/ssrn.77429.
