The decisive point for the usability of this notation is, that the representations of octave and fifth are relatively prime. I'd like to introduce this without making the article to a mathematical text, maybe there is somebody willing to help. I also wonder if the precision of the fifth representation is relevant at all. This would open the discussion about really interesting cases like [[23edo]]. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 12:13, 15 November 2020 (UTC) | The decisive point for the usability of this notation is, that the representations of octave and fifth are relatively prime.

: Inaccuracy of the fifth doesn't technically invalidate the system. It only has to do with how much sense it makes. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 17:55, 15 November 2020 (UTC) | |||
:: Above condition seemed not sufficient to me from a practical standpoint where the relevant intervals (whole tone, semitone, chroma) should have a positive size. I updated the article accordingly.

So I thought it might be worthwhile to shed a little more light on the matter. I already knew this notation from 17, 19 and 31edo, but I hadn't yet examined when exactly you can and cannot use it. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 14:20, 15 November 2020 (UTC) | So I thought it might be worthwhile to shed a little more light on the matter.

What is the correct lemma? Is it correct to place dashes between the first tree words? Thanks in advance for your help! --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 14:23, 15 November 2020 (UTC) | |||
: I suppose the current lemma is correct. Hyphens, not dashes. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 17:55, 15 November 2020 (UTC) | |||
