All intervals are given a diatonic degree, derived from their [[7edo]] [[patent val]] mapping. The simplest (according to [[Tenney height]]) just k-th is known as the central (C) k-th, for example [[5/4]] is a central third and [[7/4]] is a central seventh.

Lefts and rights notation (<>) is a notation for just intonation primarily developed by CompactStar. It represents every just interval as a sequence of lefts/rights and a diatonic degree.

Explanation

All intervals are given a diatonic degree, derived from their 7edo patent val mapping. The simplest (according to Tenney height) just k-th is central (abbreviated C), for example 5/4 is the central 3rd and 7/4 is the central 7th.
