A //tuning// for a regular temperament is defined by a vector T in [[Vals and Tuning Space#Vals%20and%20Monzos|Tenney tuning space]] whose entries are the size of the interval, in cents, which the k generators of the regular temperament (often the first k primes) are mapped to. T is denoted by a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bra-ket_notation|bra vector]], and if M is a monzo then &lt;T|M&gt; is the size, in cents, of the interval defined by M in the tuning T. If q is the rational number which M represents, then we may also write this quantity as T(q).

For an example of how this works, in the 5 and 7 limits, the TOP comma for magic temperament is 3125/3072; in the 11-limit, |0 -11 15 0 -5&gt;; in the 13 limit, |0 0 46 0 -19 -11&gt;. Putting these in Graham's app will show how closely these are associated with magic. In many cases, the association is even more emphatic.</pre></div>
