I had to undo a recent change (see above) since it was resulting in several templates breaking; specifically, the rat module was taking a very long time to calculate these large ratios and resulting in the interpreter terminating with signal 24. If these changes are necessary, might I suggest hardcoding them instead? [[User:Ganaram inukshuk|Ganaram inukshuk]] ([[User talk:Ganaram inukshuk|talk]]) 01:15, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

: I just did that change to ensure that the irrational numbers are fully accurate, so it's not necessary. I've put it down to 6 decimal digits now.

:: Those aren't significantly more accurate than before. For pi its accuracy is actually worse. Definitely not worth the load time. Hardcoding is the way. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 06:29, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
== Update ==
Using various approximations for pi etc. does not make any sense so they are commented out.
We should rewrite the math so the equave is not required to be a rational number, this restriction doesn't make sense anyway. I will take a look at how to clean up this mess soon.
: EDIT: I uncommented again since pages like [[9edϕ]] were broken.
