SRM -> MCU Conversion Formula??

[Apoxbrew]

Greetings. I have a need to convert an existing SRM to MCU. All I can find is how to get SRM from MCU, not MCU from SRM.

If I wasn't an algebraic moron, I could certainly re-calc the formula for SRM:

SRM color = 1.4922 * (MCU ** 0.6859)

Can anyone help? I want to get the MCU from and existing SRM.

Thanks!

MCU = .5577 * (SRM ^ 1.4588)

"raised to the". Same as your "**" (are you taking FORTRAN or something? )

Yeah, seriously

It took me a minute to remember what ** meant. I haven't seen that since I was programming my Atari.

LOL. thanks gents.

no... i just copied that original formula from another source so i too had no clue what ** meant either.

thanks for the clarification!!
