Many [[regular temperaments]] documented on the wiki are accompanied with an '''optimal | Many [[regular temperaments]] documented on the wiki are accompanied with an '''optimal ET sequence''', which suggests some useful [[equal tuning]]s to tune the temperament as well as [[mos scale]]s available. Technically, it gives [[generalized patent val]]s (GPVs) for [[equal temperament]]s which [[support]] the temperament, where each subsequent GPV included improves upon the [[TE error]] of the previous GPV, though no standard beginning cutoff to the list has been specified. | ||
== Computation == | |||
Optimal ET sequences can be computed by iterating through all GPVs, finding the error of each and comparing it with the last best error value. | |||
Below is an example using [[Flora Canou]]'s [https://github.com/FloraCanou/temperament_evaluator Temperament Evaluator], using the <code>et_sequence</code> function from <code>te_equal.py</code>. Here is how the optimal ET sequence for [[No-threes subgroup temperaments #Yer_.28rank_3.29|Yer temperament]] was determined, by providing its comma basis and subgroup: | |||
