this is important to link to here. im not sure how to factor it in in the most obvious way possible or how to refactor the existing text to account for this so this is my suggestion |

The '''patent val''' for an [[edo]] is a list of numbers you obtain by finding the closest rounded approximation to each [[prime harmonic]] in the tuning, assuming [[2/1|octaves]] are pure (or in other words, assuming the edo number is an integer). The basic application of a patent val is that you round prime harmonics to edosteps, and then deduce the number of steps of an arbitrary just interval based on its [[prime factorization]]. | The '''patent val''' for an [[edo]] is a list of numbers you obtain by finding the closest rounded approximation to each [[prime harmonic]] in the tuning, assuming [[2/1|octaves]] are pure (or in other words, assuming the edo number is an integer).
