== Plea for direct mapping == | |||
The [[patent val]] notation (like val notation in general) contains approximations of prime intervals. That these can be combined additively will be understood by readers who are familiar with primes and fractions. But the implicit [[consistency]] of this method can lead to confusion (and also the impression of ''in''consistency), see for example the divergence between direct and consistent [[mapping]]s of [[7/5]] in [[23edo]]: | |||
[[7/5]] == 11,16…\23 ~ 11\23 | |||
vs. | |||
([[7/4]])/([[5/4]]) ~ (19\23)-(7\23) == 12\23 | |||
Personally, I'm not really convinced by the concept of consistency which builds on the concept of [[odd limit]]. | |||
Since ''[[consistent mapping]]'' is so present in the wiki, | |||
would it be too confusing if the term "patent interval" implied ''[[direct mapping]]''? | |||
