Sumario:A code that allows us to obtain the mass of an isolated star (see: Code for calculating the mass of a star onto the HR diagram, 1993; S. Paoli et al.) from its position in the observational HR diagram is devoted to the determination of the total observed mass of an open cluster. Likewise, our aim is to compute spectra of masses and Initial Mass Functions (IMFs) and check possible variations in the slope of these functions, which can be related with the galactocentric positions of these objets (i.e. if Salpeter's Law varies or not).
