Talk:Relative errors of small EDOs

(WIP) Relative Errors of Small Edos

I did a change to the upper table to right-align the numbers, I hope that's okay. Here some (hopefully helpful) suggestions:

• leave out the repetitive /1 in the headings
• leave out the column for prime 2
• switch from permille with one decimal place to the more common percent with two decimal places

Thx. No idea how you did it.

> leave out the repetitive /1 in the headings

> leave out the column for prime 2

Although this article is about edos, the method is valid for all rank-1 temperaments. For non-octave temperaments, the errors of, for example, 3/1 and 3/2 are different. Maybe I'll do ed3, ed5, etc. in the future. That's the reason why the /1 and prime 2 are there.

> percent

I'll do the switch after I fill it all up to see if it looks better. FloraC (talk) 15:15, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Maybe I can help you with this, I'm a professional programmer who can automate this with Perl or Python. I'd also hand you the script for further adaption then ... Please tell me if this sounds right to you. --Xenwolf (talk) 18:49, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
