Also I am currently using the below table to find the mass given the spectralClass of a star.
I want to make this as accurate as I can so if anyone has any comments or links to similar tables that I could compare this to it would be much appreciated.
Code: Select all

static float massO[10] =
{ //guessed the first 4 entries
210, 180, 150, 120, 90, 60, 37, 30, 23, 23.3f
};
static float massB[10] =
{
17.5f, 14.2f, 10.9f, 7.6f, 6.5f, 5.9f, 5.2f, 4.5f, 3.8f, 3.35f
