How is the diameter of a brad nail found if the "gauge" of the brad is given?

This calculator seems accurate for the 23ga and 18ga I checked:

Edit to add: Not sure how you want to use the actual diameters -- 18 ga brad I have is actually more rectangular than round -- neither dimension matched the calculator exactly.

Here a wire gauge chart... http://cattlecorner.com/conversions/wiregauge.htm
The numbers match with another reference I've got.
