In [[13-limit]] [[superpyth]], [[11/8]] is a sub-sub-sub-<sub>5</sub>fourth, and [[13/8]] is a sub-sub-<sub>5</sub>fifth.
In [[13-limit]] [[superpyth]], [[11/8]] is a sub-sub-sub-<sub>5</sub>fourth, and [[13/8]] is a sub-sub-<sub>5</sub>fifth.


Primes beyond 13 are classified somewhat like the FJS, with generator ranges from -6 to +5, with priority 0, 1, -1, 2, -2, etc. Unlike FJS, however, the RoT is not the same in both directions. The RoT of a pythagorean interval of <math>i</math> cents is <math>i-68</math> through <math>i+46</math> cents. This range was chosen so that it works for the 13-limit, and it spans just over an [[2187/2048|apotome]], the large step in the pythagorean chromatic scale. The exact range was set considering a few large primes: Prime [[37/1|37]] is just barely not a <sub>5</sub>m2<sup>37</sup>, but rather a <sub>5</sub>M2<sup>37</sup>; similarly, prime [[41/1|41]] is just barely not a <sub>5</sub>P3<sup>41</sup>, but rather a <sub>5</sub>s3<sup>41</sup>.
In the PFJS, primes beyond 13 are classified somewhat like the FJS, based on pythagorean intervals from -5 to +6 perfect <sub>5</sub>fourths, with priority 0, 1, -1, 2, -2, etc. Unlike FJS, however, the RoT is not the same in both directions.
