When the EDO has fifths so narrow that the apotome becomes very small or negative (e.g. 33-EDO), a limma-fraction notation must be used. When the EDO has fifths so wide that the limma becomes very small or negative (e.g. 32-EDO), an apotome-fraction notation must be used. | When the EDO has fifths so narrow that the apotome becomes very small or negative (e.g. 33-EDO), a limma-fraction notation must be used.

Sagittal defines a bad fifth as one with an error of more than 10.5 cents from just. | ||
