| One way to add weighting back in is to exclude powers of 2 (to assume that powers of 2 don't affect the complexity of the move). For 81/80 we then get 4+1=5. | | One way to add weighting back in is to exclude powers of 2 (to assume that powers of 2 don't affect the complexity of the move). For 81/80 we then get 4+1=5. |

| If you discard powers of both 2 and 3, you get an understanding of commas relevant to [[sagittal corner|Sagittal notation]], which notates higher-prime-limit ratios in terms of their deviation from a cycle of fifths. In this sense, 81/80 has a taxicab distance of 1, as it contains only a single instance of 5, which is why in Sagittal notation it is called the "5-comma". | | If you discard powers of both 2 and 3, you get an understanding of commas relevant to [[Sagittal_Corner|Sagittal notation]], which notates higher-prime-limit ratios in terms of their deviation from a cycle of fifths.

| To calculate the taxicab distance between 1/1 and any interval, take the sum of the absolute values of the exponents of the prime factorization. For the example of 81/80:<br />
| |
| <br />
| |
| 81/80 = 2^-4 * 3^4 * 5^-1<br />
| |
| |-4| + |4| + |-1| = 9<br />
