'''1729/1728''', known as the '''ramanujanisma''', is a [[19-limit]] (more accurately, 2.3.7.13.19 [[subgroup]]) [[superparticular]] interval and an [[unnoticeable comma]] that is remarkably close to one cent in size. It forms the difference between the [[octave]] and a stack of [[7/6]], [[13/12]] and [[19/12]], and less likely, the difference between [[19/18]] and [[96/91]]. | '''1729/1728''', known as the '''ramanujanisma''', is a [[19-limit]] (more accurately, 2.3.7.13.19 [[subgroup]]) [[superparticular]] interval and an [[unnoticeable comma]] that is remarkably close to one cent in size.

Interestingly, [[133/108]] = [[7/6]] * [[19/18]] is a ramanujanisma flat of [[16/13]], so that any accurate tuning of the 2.3.7.19 subgroup will naturally have an accurate approximation of 16/13 too. | ||
Both the numerator and denominator of this interval are famous in mathematics. [[Wikipedia: 1728 (number)|1728]], being 12 to the 3rd power, is also known as mass. [[Wikipedia:1729 (number)|1729]] is known for being Ramanujan's number and the first number that can be expressed as the sum of two cubes in two different ways (1729 = 1<sup>3</sup> + 12<sup>3</sup> = 9<sup>3</sup> + 10<sup>3</sup>). | Both the numerator and denominator of this interval are famous in mathematics.
