# Construct a detempering of ''n''-edo as follows: For each integer value {{nowrap|1 ≤ ''i'' ≤ ''n''}}, set the ''i''th degree of the scale to be the least temperamentally-complex interval ''c'' in the preimage of ''i''\''n'' such that {{nowrap|''V''(''c'') {{=}} ''i''}}; which is to say, the interval of least [[Complexity#Complexity of an interval in a temperament|temperamental complexity]] with ties broken by Benedetti height.
