== Explanation ==
All intervals are given a diatonic degree (e.g. [[3/2]] is a fifth), derived from their [[7edo]] [[patent val]] mapping.  A basic (b) n-th is the simplest (via [[Tenney height]]) just n-th. A left (<) n-th is the simplest n-th that is flatter than the basic n-th, and similarly a right (>) n-th is the simplest n-th that is sharper than the basic n-th.
