Creates a Single-factor Vasicek ShortRate Model object to be used within the interest rate Engines.

Defined as : dr_t = a(b - r_t)dt + sigma*dW_t, where a, b and sigma are constants.

This function can be calibrated by executing one of the calibration functions (functions with a naming convention of Calibrate*() ) within the CapeTools IR Calibration or CapeTools LMM Calibration category of functions.

Not all calibration functions can be used with each model.

The calibration parameters will be returned within an array in which you can you construct a new Vasicek1FModel from.

You can create Pricing Engines from this Vasicek1FModel model by executing one of the following functions : JamSwaptionEngine(), TreeSwaptionEngine(), AnalyticCapFloorEngine() or TreeCapFloorEngine(). In these latter functions, the string 'key' returned from this Vasicek1FModel function acts as input to these Engine functions.

This function creates an object and returns a string-key value to represent this created object.
The TAG value of the string-key returned (second part of the key) is : "VAMOD"

The C# example below contains all the sub-function calls leading up to this function call. As a result, the example can contain a lot of code.

The VB.NET, J#, C++.NET, Java, Excel VBA, Visual Basic 6 (via COM) and C++ examples below contain function code stubs for the calls leading up to this function call. However, the function call for this function is displayed.
You can easily reproduce the stub functions code from the C# example.
