== Theory ==
118edo represents the intersection of the [[5-limit]] [[schismatic]] and [[parakleismic]] temperaments, [[tempering out]] both the [[schisma]], {{monzo| -15 8 1 }} and the [[parakleisma]], {{monzo| 8 14 -13 }}, as well as the [[vishnuzma]], {{monzo| 23 6 -14 }}, the [[hemithirds comma]], {{monzo| 38 -2 -15 }}, and the [[kwazy]], {{monzo| -53 10 16 }}. It is the first 5-limit equal division which clearly gives microtempering, with errors well under half a cent.

In the 11-limit, it tempers out [[385/384]] and [[441/440]], and is an excellent tuning for [[portent]], the temperament tempering out both, and for the 11-limit version of guiron, which does also.
