41edo is the second smallest equal division (after [[29edo]]) whose perfect fifth is closer to just intonation than that of [[12edo]], and is the seventh [[zeta integral edo]] after 31; it is not, however, a [[zeta gap edo]]. This has to do with the fact that it can deal with the [[11-limit]] fairly well, and the [[13-limit]] perhaps close enough for government work, though its [[~]][[13/10]] is 14 cents sharp. Anyway, it is [[consistent]] in the [[15-odd-limit]], or the no-17's [[21-odd-limit]]. In fact, ''all'' of its intervals between 100 and 1100 cents in size are 15-odd-limit [[consonance]]s, although 16\41 arguably manifests itself as [[21/16]] rather than 13/10. Apart from the full 13-limit, it is even more prominent as a 2.3.5.7.11.19.29.31 [[subgroup temperament]] for its size, and perhaps the smallest system with a satisfactory model of the [[9-odd-limit]] because it is the smallest edo to tune the [[9-odd-limit]] distinctly consistent. | 41edo is the second smallest equal division (after [[29edo]]) whose perfect fifth is closer to just intonation than that of [[12edo]], and is the seventh [[zeta integral edo]], after 31; it is not, however, a [[zeta gap edo]].

A step of 41edo is close and consistently mapped to [[64/63]], the septimal comma. | A step of 41edo is close and consistently mapped to [[64/63]], the septimal comma. | ||
