This notation is mainly intended for equal temperaments
The '''fractional sharp notation''' (FSN) is a notation developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] that is largely an extension of [[circle-of-fifths notation]], which can be used for [[EDO]]s and secondarily for [[just intonation]]. It represents all intervals with conventional accidentals, but with sharps and flats extended to have an arbitrary rational amount, denoted by a superscript (like #<sup>1/2</sup> for half-sharp) except for in the case of single and double accidentals. This means that there is support for not only half-sharps and half-flats, but third-sharps, third-flats and so on, supporting almost all equal tunings. Multiples of [[7edo]] are not supported, but these are possible to be notated as subsets of larger EDOs, with [[14edo]] and [[21edo]] in particular as both subsets of [[42edo]].
