We can do this by factorizing the formal primes in just the same way we factorize intervals into prime count vectors, such as 5/4 factorizing to {{vector|-2 0 1}}. This is also the same way we represent comma intervals within the other key RTT basis: the comma basis.  
We can do this by factorizing the formal primes in just the same way we factorize intervals into [[prime-count vector]]s, such as 5/4 factorizing to {{vector|-2 0 1}}. This is also the same way we represent comma intervals within the other key RTT basis: the comma basis.  


But here, we're going one step deeper down! Now we're breaking down our formal primes — the building blocks of our intervals — into ''their own building blocks''. We can call these deeper building blocks '''formal prime basis elements'''.
