Scientific paper

Computer simulations have been performed to analyze the effects of stellar crowding and the presence of binaries on the determination of apparent luminosity functions of stars in clusters. At extragalactic distances, crowding effects become extremely important. The implications for determining luminosity functions in external galaxies and for deriving distances using the brightest stars are discussed.
