One other thing is that, because of the "1/P", the formula requires you to divide by zero if you want to calculate an EDO degree, which results in the answer being "undefined". Is that supposed to happen? If so, that's worth warning people about in the article. I feel like that's not supposed to happen and I might be doing something wrong? If I am doing something wrong, it might be worth telling people in the article how to avoid doing whatever dumb thing I did, because I guarantee other people will make the same mistake. --[[User:BudjarnLambeth|BudjarnLambeth]] ([[User talk:BudjarnLambeth|talk]]) 09:11, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

: Update: I did notice that when I took the mean of the formula results for p=1 and p=-1, it gave an answer that was close to the expected value for p=0. (Any error may have been rounding error from not using enough decimal places?) Is that what I'm supposed to do for p=0, use p=1 and p=-1 and then take the average of the two answers? If so, it would be worth explicitly saying that in the page.
