Abstract
The authors describe a numerical procedure for empirically determining a "continuum" level in low-dispersion spectra from the International Ultraviolet Explorer. They developed the technique for the automated fitting of SWP-LO (1150 Å - 2000 Å) spectra of stars of late spectral type, but it is more widely applicable.
