The '''python comma''' (ratio: 43046721/41943040) is a [[5-limit]] [[medium comma]] which is the product of [[81/80]] and the [[pythagorean comma]]. Tempering it out leads to the rank-2 python temperament generated by a slightly flat 3/2 that is very near [[12edo]]'s rendition of it in the optimized tuning.

The python comma (monzo[-23 16 -1, ratio: 43046721/41943040) is a medium 5-limit comma which is the product of 81/80 and the pythagorean comma. Tempering out this comma leads to the rank-2 python temperament generated by a slightly flat 3/2 that is very near 12edo's rendition of it in the optimized tuning.

The name was coined by CompactStar in 2023 as a combination of pythagorean comma and syntonic comma.
