The ''structure metric'' is a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_(mathematics) distance function] on the notes of a [[Periodic_scale|periodic scale]] within a single period, which give to it the property of being a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_space finite metric space]. If '''s''' is a periodic scale with quasiperiod '''P''', and if c is an interval '''s'''[i+j] - '''s'''[i] with 0≤i<'''P''', then we may define the specific interval set S(c, j) to be {i|'''s'''[i+j] - '''s'''[i] = c} with 0≤i<'''P''', that is, indicies for the set of intervals with specific, chromatic size c and generic, scalar interval j. If #S(c, j) is the cardinality of S(c, j), then we set d('''s'''[a], '''s'''[b]), which we will abbreviate as d(a, b), to be '''P''' - #S(|'''s'''[a] - '''s'''[b]|, |a - b|).
