The '''118 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''118edo'''), or the '''118(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''118tet''', '''118et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, is the [[equal division of the octave]] into 118 parts of about 10.2 [[cent]]s each~~, a size close to [[169/168]]~~.

The '''118 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''118edo'''), or the '''118(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''118tet''', '''118et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, is the [[equal division of the octave]] into 118 parts of about 10.2 [[cent]]s each.

It has two reasonable mappings for 13. The [[patent val]] tempers out [[196/195]], [[352/351]], [[625/624]], [[729/728]], [[1001/1000]], [[1575/1573]] and [[4096/4095]]. The 118f val tempers out [[169/168]], [[325/324]], [[351/350]], [[364/363]], [[1573/1568]], [[1716/1715]] and [[2080/2079]]. It is, however, better viewed as a no-13 19-limit temperament, on which subgroup it is consistent through the [[21-odd-limit]].

Since the [[Pythagorean comma]] maps to 2 steps of 118edo, it can be interpreted as a series of ten segments of twelve Pythagorean fifths minus the said comma.

Since the [[Pythagorean comma]] maps to 2 steps of 118edo, it can be interpreted as a series of ten segments of twelve Pythagorean fifths minus the said comma. In addition, one step of 118edo is close to the [[bronzisma]], 2097152/2083725, [[169/168]], and [[170/169]].

118edo is the 17th [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning|zeta peak edo]].
