m 311 EDO huge table: added question about organisation
Line 940: Line 940:


Oh one other thing, feel free to suggest ways of making the table prettier. For example, I was initially only putting the intervals of the form a/b for a>b and for a and b from 39 to 78 (not including primes >41 other than 73 and corresponding thusly to the 41-prime-limited add-73 77-odd-limit) but then I noticed the end of the table was sparse and some intervals were missing, so instead I put the octave-complement of each such interval too, but this made the organisation messier. It does mean however that the interval table could potentially have its size halved without any loss of information and with the only caveat that you'd have to calculate octave-complements of intervals yourself (both in terms of number of steps and in terms of JI intervals). I think my former method which lead to a more orderly organisation of odd-limit intervals per interval of 311 EDO was maybe better especially considering it lead to simpler code too.  Once I or others decide which is the better method I may start hand-prettifying the table by adding consistently-mapped odd-limit intervals or commas for empty intervals of 311 EDO in the table. One example could be that 9801/9800, 441/440 and 385/384 are all mapped to 1\311, although my concern for giving interpretations like that is there is a gargantuan number of intervals that are mapped to one or two steps of 311 EDO, so maybe leaving them blank is more elegant. --[[User:Godtone|Godtone]] ([[User talk:Godtone|talk]]) 23:26, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

== Categorization of redirects ==
I see it fit to categorize temperament redirects cuz they're eventually to be expanded to full articles. For ratios redirecting to interval names, I'm not sure. They're essentially the same concept and will never be distinct articles. So the categories are duplicate, and the maintenance load also doubles. What's your take on this?
