A '''direct approximation''' of an interval in a given [[edo]] is the number of edosteps that most closely approximates it, found by [[rounding]] to the nearest integer the edo number times the [[log2|binary logarithm]] of the interval:

In [[regular temperament theory]], intervals are mapped through [[val]]s. Although more complex, it recognizes the fact that intervals like 3/2, 5/4, and 6/5 are related, as the number of steps of one interval is determined once the other two have been determined. The three situations in the above example correspond to using vals {{val| 17 27 39 }}, {{val| 17 27 40 }}, and {{val| 17 26 39 }}, respectively.
