Bisection-based XIRR implementation in C#

Here is a quick implementation of XIRR (using Excel nomenclature) written in C#. Disclaimer : this is a super simple Bisection-based implementation. People tend to prefer the Newton method, but this is simpler and works for the app I'm writing. I decided

I'm slightly prouder of the structure of this code than the one in the previous blog post . You can simply inherit from QIFParserBase and override a couple of abstract methods to customize the behavior. Still, I just tested it on a couple of test QIF
