The '''sesdecal''' ([[monzo]]: {{monzo| -4 1 7 0 -4 }}, [[ratio]]: 234375/234256) is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[11-limit]] (also 2.3.5.11 [[subgroup]]) [[comma]] measuring about 0.879 [[cent]]s. It is the difference between four intervals of [[25/22]] and [[5/3]]. [[User:Lériendil|Lériendil]] observed that this comma also functions as a way to introduce prime 41 into the 2.3.5.11 subgroup, by noting this to be the difference between [[1025/1024]] and [[600281/600000]].
