* The many and various 3/2 approximations in different EDOs can be classified as (after [[Kite Giedraitis]]):
** '''superflat''' EDO - fifth is narrower than 686 cents.
** '''perfect''' EDO - fifth is 686 cents wide (and 4/7 steps).
** '''diatonic''' EDO - fifth is between 686.1 - 719.9 cents wide.
** '''pentatonic''' EDO - fifth is exactly 720 cents wide.
** '''supersharp''' EDO - fifth is wider than 720 cents.
