        For a partial-time floating strike lookback option, the
        lookback period starts at time zero and ends at an arbitrary
        date before expiration. Except for the partial lookback
        period, the option is similar to a floating strike lookback
        option. The partial-time floating strike lookback option is
        cheaper than a similar standard floating strike lookback
        option. Partial-time floating strike lookback options can be
        priced analytically using a model introduced by Heynen and Kat
        (1994).

        For a partial-time fixed strike lookback option, the lookback
        period starts at a predetermined date after the initialization
        date of the option.  The partial-time fixed strike lookback
        call option payoff is given by the difference between the
        maximum observed price of the underlying asset during the
        lookback period and the fixed strike price. The partial-time
        fixed strike lookback put option payoff is given by the
        difference between the fixed strike price and the minimum
        observed price of the underlying asset during the lookback
        period. The partial-time fixed strike lookback option is
        cheaper than a similar standard fixed strike lookback
        option. Partial-time fixed strike lookback options can be
