dereddening

Code to compute and correct for reddening the flux given a magnitude value in one of the bands -- U, B, V, R, I, J, H, K -- between near-UV and IR. The code uses the reddening law of Cardelli et al. 1989 (published ApJ, 354, 245).

Dependencies

The code uses only built-in python (2.7.6) modules -- argparse, logging, math.
