All intervals are represented as a sequence of lefts (<)/rights (>) and a degree. The degree is determined by direct [[7edo]] mapping. The basic
All intervals are given a diatonic degree (e.g. [[3/2]] is a fifth), derived from their [[7edo]] [[patent val]] mapping. A basic (b) nth is the simplest (via [[Tenney height]]) just interval that is an nth. For example:
Basic unison = [[1/1]]
Basic second = [[8/7]]
Basic third = [[5/4]]
