Yahoo historical data downloader

I've taken a look inside the get_hist_stock_data.m from Luminous Logic , the script that I was using for a looong time. The code seemed like it could use a little bit of cleaning up, but I've ended up rewriting it completely. The resulting code is just several lines long , accepts precise historical period and returns a struct.

Code:  download_hist_yahoo_data.m

    1. Please take a look at the code itself, it is documented and pretty self-explanatory.
