which is almost exactly the same as the Tenney height, except that the weighting on each prime is simply <math>p</math> instead of <math>\log(p)</math>. Like the Tenney height, it is a scaled <math>\ell_1</math> norm. Similarly, we get a dual norm on vals, which is an <math>\ell_\infty</math> norm, and where each prime is weighted by <math>1/p</math>. Both of these norms can be extended to the exterior algebra, so that we can use it as a measure of the complexity of a temperament. | which is almost exactly the same as the Tenney height, except that the weighting on each prime is simply <math>p</math> instead of <math>\log(p)</math>.

We can likewise keep the <math>p</math> and <math>1/p</math> weighting, but change things so that we have a weighted math>\ell_2</math> norm instead of a weighted <math>\ell_1</math>. We can call this the '''Wilson-Euclidean''' norm, and likewise use it to create metrics similar to the [[Tenney-Euclidean_metrics]], including a Wilson-weighted version of the [[Cangwu_badness]]. | We can likewise keep the <math>p</math> and <math>1/p</math> weighting, but change things so that we have a weighted <math>\ell_2</math> norm instead of a weighted <math>\ell_1</math>.
