This interval is significant in the [[Functional Just System]] and [[Helmholtz-Ellis notation]] as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby 23-limit (vicesimotertial) interval.  
This interval is significant in the [[Functional Just System]] and [[Helmholtz-Ellis notation]] as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby 23-limit (vicesimotertial) interval. The symbols being used in Helmholtz-Ellis notation are virtually identical to up and down arrows, and the authors attribute them to [[James Tenney]] and {{w|John Cage}}, who have possibly used them for [[72edo|1\72]].
