Library to calculate Canadian mortgage payments
Canadian mortages are compounded semi-annually but payments are typically made monthly. This means that rates must be converted to accurately compute mortgage payments.
There are no prepayment options included in this calculator.
For a more flexible and complete mortgage calculator, visit the mortgage calculator from the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada.

fn main() {
let mortgage = canadian_mortgage::CanadianMortgage::new(

)
.unwrap();
println!("mortgage payment: {}", mortgage.payment(dec!(500000)).unwrap());
