Syntonic–31 equivalence continuum: Difference between revisions

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy {{nowrap|(81/80)^''n'' ~ {{monzo| -49 31 }}}}. Varying ''n'' results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to [[meantone]] as ''n'' approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite ''n'', the continuum describes the set of all [[5-limit]] temperaments supported by [[31edo]] due to it being the unique equal temperament that tempers out both commas and thus tempers out all combinations of them. The just value of ''n'' is approximately 7.46781…, and temperaments having ''n'' near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.
