The resulting MOS pattern therefore has a quantity of neutral mossteps that is twice that of min(''x'', ''y''), and a quantity of remaining large or small steps that is abs(''x''-y). | The resulting MOS pattern therefore has a quantity of neutral mossteps that is twice that of min(''x'', ''y''), and a quantity of remaining large or small steps that is abs(''x''-y). In other words, the resulting scale has the same step count, but different quantities of large and small steps. | ||
Since the size of a neutral step is, by definition, between the sizes of a large and small step, whether the neutral step becomes the new large or small steps solely depends on the number of large or small steps in the original scale: | Since the size of a neutral step is, by definition, between the sizes of a large and small step, whether the neutral step becomes the new large or small steps solely depends on the number of large or small steps in the original scale: | ||
