## Detailed Description

### template<class Instr, class Engine>
class QuantLib::QuantoEngine< Instr, Engine >

Quanto engine.

Warning:
  for the time being, this engine will only work with simple Black-Scholes processes (i.e., no Merton.)

Tests:
  - the correctness of the returned value is tested by reproducing results available in literature.
  - the correctness of the returned greeks is tested by reproducing numerical derivatives.
