311edo is [[consistent]] through the 41-odd-limit and uniquely consistent through the [[23-odd-limit]] and is a [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta gap edo]] and a [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta peak integer edo]]. It achieves this since except for the prime harmonics greater than 41 (but not including the prime 73 which ''is'' tuned accurately, in fact more accurately than all prior primes), all harmonics up to and including the 80th are more in-tune than out-of-tune with 311edo and thus all the ratios between those harmonics are mapped consistently – and thus with a maximum error of ~1.929¢. This means 311edo is an ''extremely'' efficient temperament for approximating the harmonic series consistently and ''simply'', given how much harmonic content it approximates/represents for its size.  
311edo is [[consistent]] through the 41-odd-limit and distinctly consistent through the [[23-odd-limit]], and is a [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta gap edo]] and a [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning #Zeta EDO lists|zeta peak integer edo]]. It achieves this since all [[harmonic]]s up to and including the 42nd, and all composite harmonics up to and including the 80th, are more in-tune than out-of-tune (but note prime 73 ''is'' tuned accurately, in fact more accurately than all prior primes). Thus all the ratios between those harmonics are mapped consistently – and thus with a maximum error of ~1.929¢.
