Odd harmonics

680edo retains a reasonable 3rd and 5th harmonic, though nowhere near the accuracy of the prior multiple 612edo; as a multiple of 34edo, 680edo borrows that edo's accurate representation of the interval 25/24, implying that the error on prime 3 is approximately twice that on prime 5. However, 680edo is most notable for its approximation of the 7th harmonic, 680 being the denominator of a semiconvergent to log2(7/4). It also has a very accurate 23rd harmonic, inherited from 170edo.
