988edo provides excellent tuning for the 2, 3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 37, 43, 47, 53, and 59th harmonics, making a strong higher-limit system. It is double the famous [[494edo]], and with the same mapping for the 17-limit. To break the contorsion, 988d val can be used.
988edo is [[enfactoring|enfactored]] in the [[17-limit]], with the same tuning as [[494edo]], which is notable for being a [[zeta edo]]. If considered in the 19-limit, it provides a good correction for the 19th harmonic over 494edo. A [[comma basis]] for 988edo in the 19-limit is {[[1156/1155]], [[1275/1274]], [[1445/1444]], [[1716/1715]], [[2080/2079]], [[2431/2430]], [[4096/4095]]}. An alternate mapping for 17 would be the 988g val, where it tempers out [[2025/2023]], 13013/13005, 15625/15606, 31213/31212.  


In the 2.5.11.13.19.41.47 it supports a 988 & [[2016edo|2016]] temperament.<!-- why is it notable? -->
In addition, in the 988ccd val provides a tuning that is extremely close to the [[POTE tuning]] for [[quadritikleismic]] temperament in the 7-limit.

=== Higher limits ===
988edo provides excellent approximations for harmonics 2, 3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 37, 43, 47, 53, and 59, and reasonable approximations for harmonics 23, 29, 31, and 41, making it a strong higher-limit system.
 
In the 2.5.11.13.19.29.31 it supports period-52 temperament called [[french deck]], with the tempering out of [[6656/6655]] inherited from 494edo.
 
988edo is similar to [[2016edo]] in the fact that both tune well the 2.5.11.13.19.41.47 subgroup. The result is the 988 & 2016 temperament, which reaches [[13/8]] in four generators and has a comma basis {7943/7942, 322465/322373, 16777475/16777216, 22151168/22150865, 12998046875/12994428928}.
 
=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 988 factors into {{factorization|988}}, 988edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, and 494 }}.
 
One step of 988edo is named ''semisqub'', given the strong relation to 494edo and the fact that 1 step of 494edo is called a squb.
