A redundant accidental, the [[mercator comma]], can be introduced to keep the amount of pythagorean commas needed less than two, since it is the difference between 4 pythagorean commas and one limma. 17/16 is a type of '''major''' second. Using a mercator comma allows it to be respelled as a minor second + pythagorean comma - mercator comma... etc. | A redundant accidental, the [[mercator comma]], can be introduced to keep the amount of pythagorean commas needed less than two, since it is the difference between 4 pythagorean commas and one limma. 17/16 is a type of '''major''' second.

[[Eufalesio]] had devised a somewhat accessible notation of differently sized accidentals can be devised by reusing the suit of accidentals that is used for 12e, cassandra, and cassaschismic, and expanding upon them to accomodate the minuscule alterations. This has the benefit of being a natural representation of olympic, keeping the representations of primes 2-13,19 as simple as possible. | [[Eufalesio]] had devised a somewhat accessible notation of differently sized accidentals can be devised by reusing the suit of accidentals that is used for 12e, cassandra, and cassaschismic, and expanding upon them to accomodate the minuscule alterations.
