The '''letter comma notation''' (LCN) is a notation scheme developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] for [[just intonation]] up to the [[101-limit]] as well as [[regular temperament]]s based on it. As with other JI notations, it is based on [[3-limit]] notation with a set of accidentals corresponding to a formal comma for each prime limit. Letters are used as these accidentals–capital letters are ascending and lowercase letters are descending.  
The '''letter comma notation''' (LCN) is a notation scheme developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] for [[just intonation]] up to the [[31-limit]] as well as [[regular temperament]]s based on it. As with other JI notations, it is based on [[3-limit]] notation with a set of accidentals corresponding to a formal comma for each prime limit. The letters H-Z are used for these accidentals, and alternate between ascending and descending, so H is 5-limit ascending, I is 5-limit descending, J is 7-limit ascending, K is 7-limit descending and so on. This notation bears similarity to [[FJS]] but it aims to be more easily typable.
