Squares splits the interval of an eleventh, or 8/3, into four supermajor third ([[9/7]]) intervals, and uses it for a generator. [[31edo|31EDO]], with a generator of 11/31, makes for a good squares tuning, with 8, 11, and 14 note MOS available. Squares tempers out [[2401/2400]], the breedsma, as well as [[2430/2401]].
