I really recommend, you get a good book on that topic and work it through. My personal recommendation is " Options, Futures and Other Derivatives" from Hull.

Kind regards,

Hi Sandeep,

You can check some slides from John Hull website

http://www.rotman.utoronto.ca/~hull/ as suggested by Ulrich.

Hope it will help!
