    I do not know why you are telling me 🙂

    None of those can be asked as calculations – only as written. (Swaps are not strictly examinable at F9 at all.)
    Futures and options are not too bad. You should watch the lecture on them.

    Swaps are not mentioned anywhere in the syllabus – have you read the syllabus?

    (It mentions derivatives, but strictly swaps are not a derivative)
