Another | Another notable feature of the mina is the accuracy and breadth of it's approximation to just intervals. Accordingly it is hardly necessary to express intervals in non-integer values of mina, something that arguably cannot be said of cents. [[2460edo]] It is uniquely [[xenharmonic/consistent|consistent]] through to the [[xenharmonic/27-limit|27-limit]], which is not very remarkable in itself ([[xenharmonic/388edo|388edo]] is the first such system), but what is remarkable is the degree of accuracy to which it represents the 27-limit intervals. It is also a [[xenharmonic/The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#Zeta%20EDO%20lists|zeta peak edo]] and has a lower 19-limit [[xenharmonic/Tenney-Euclidean temperament measures#TE%20simple%20badness|relative error]] than any edo until [[xenharmonic/3395edo|3395]], and a lower 23-limit relative error than any until [[xenharmonic/8269edo|8269]]. Also it has a lower 23-limit [[xenharmonic/Tenney-Euclidean metrics#Logflat%20TE%20badness| TE loglfat badness]] than any smaller edo and less than any until [[xenharmonic/16808edo|16808]]. | ||
Below the intervals of the [[27-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] are tabulated, with the sizes listed in both [[cent]]s and minas and expressed as degrees and minutes (rounded to the nearest minute). The value in minas, rounded to the nearest integer, can be found by applying the [[23-limit]] [[patent val]] <2460 3899 5712 6906 8510 9103 10055 10450 11128| for 2460edo; this will not work for [[1200edo]] and cents. | Below the intervals of the [[27-limit]] [[tonality diamond]] are tabulated, with the sizes listed in both [[cent]]s and minas and expressed as degrees and minutes (rounded to the nearest minute).
