79edo adequately represents the [[Decaononic]] way of playing, as 79edo misses 9/8 while having a near-perfect representation of 10/9 as 12\79. A [[maximal evenness]] variant of such a scale can be generated by naively stacking six [[12edo]] diatonic majors and one Lydian [[tetrachord]]{{clarify}}. Since the final tetrachord does not have a 2nd degree, this results in 6 II's stretched over 6 + 7/12 octaves, which is just enough to make the log2 of the number to be equal to 10/9{{clarify}}. From a regular temperament theory perspective, these scales are a part of the [[bluebirds]] temperament.

In [[12edo]] and meantones close to it (used predominantly in Western music), when the difference between 10/9 and 9/8 is tempered out, what really happens is that only the 9/8 is used, and 10/9 is raised to be equal to 9/8. 79edo misses 9/8 while having a near-perfect representation of 10/9 as 12\79.
