    1-001d-HotelPopulationDecay-ModelingScenario
    You will be modeling the following situation: 100 people are in a hotel. Each day, each person has a random chance of 50% of leaving the hotel. No new people enter the hotel. Before you run the simulation in MATLAB, answer some questions.

    2005-DieboldEtAl-Modeling Bond Yields In Finance And Macroeconomics
    From a macroeconomic perspective, the short-term interest rate is a policy instrument under the direct control of the central bank. From a finance perspective, long rates are risk-adjusted averages of expected future short rates.
