Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Advanced techniques: Black-Scholes call value, binomial-tree option value, and scenario analysis. Method selects the technique. For a quick expected value over arbitrary outcome lists, prefer valuation_probability with method 'probability_weighted'; scenario_analysis here is for explicit named bull/base/bear scenario tables. Parameters apply per method: black_scholes and binomial need underlying + strike + risk_free_rate + volatility + time_to_maturity (binomial adds steps); scenario_analysis needs scenarios. Not for plain discounted cash flow — for that use valuation_time_value. Only method is required; all other parameters are method-dependent, so supply those the selected method names and omit the rest (defaults apply where defined). Rate and decimal inputs are fractions (0.10 = 10%); probability and weight lists are in [0,1] and sum to 1. Returns value, method, inputs, assumptions, chapter, formula_number and calculation steps; pure arithmetic — no I/O and no external calls — rounded to 2 decimals, with no auth or rate limits. An unknown method, or a missing method-required parameter, returns an error instead of a value. ``` ### `valuation_biotech` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
