TE complexity is the average hypervolume of the parallelepipeds formed by any ''n'' linearly independent generators which form and saturate that lattice. Since this is exactly the same thing as the magnitude of the multivector formed by those vectors, TE complexity is the exact same thing as the average of the coefficients of the [[wedgie]] for that temperament.

Let us define the val weighting matrix ''W'' to be the {{w|diagonal matrix}} with values 1, 1/log<sub>2</sub>3, 1/log<sub>2</sub>5 … 1/log<sub>2</sub>''p'' along the diagonal. For the prime basis {{nowrap|''Q'' {{=}} {{val| 2 3 5 … ''p'' }} }},
