Value
The pMC values from the F14C values. Basically the original values multiplied by 100.

Details
Post-bomb dates are often reported as F14C (between 0 at c. 55 kcal BP and 1 at c. AD 1950). Since software such as Bacon expects radiocarbon ages,
this function can be used to calculate radiocarbon ages from F14C values. The reverse function is age.F14C.
