ARCHIVED WIKISPACES DISCUSSION BELOW
All discussion below is archived from the Wikispaces export in its original unaltered form.
PLEASE MAKE ANY NEW COMMENTS ABOVE THIS SECTION. Anything below here is for archival purposes only.
What does the variable "n" mean?
Midway down the page:
"This is sometimes called a k)n cps. There are special names for special cases: a 2)4 cps is called a hexany; both 2)5 and 3)5 cps are called dekanies; both 2)6 and 4)6 cps are called pentadekanies, and a 3)6 cps an eikosany. These are normally considered in connection with just intonation, so that the starting set is a set of positive rational numbers, but nothing prevents consideration of the more general case."
k)n is related to the notation CPS(S,k) earlier in the page. I assume that n is some kind of shorthand for S. To turn k)n into CPS(S,k), we have to somehow turn n into S. I assume that S is the set of all primes and their reciprocals up to the nth prime, or something like that?
