=What is a tablet?=  
=What is a tablet?=  
By a //tablet// (the name by analogy with tablature) is meant a pair [n, c] consisting of an approximate note-number n (an integer) and a chord denoting element c, typically a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuple|tuple]] of integers, which defines a type of chord up to octave equivalence. Together they define a note in a just intonation group or regular temperament. The representation of the note is non-unique, as for any note there will be a variety of tablets for it depending on the specified type of chord and chord element, but by means of a val or val-like mapping, the number n in the tablet is definable from the note. For a discussion of how tablets can be used as a compositional tool, see [[Composing with tablets]].
