We say that is the score of a "step" is equal to 1/(min_cents + (the motion's error in cents)) * complexity_fondness**(the complexity of the motion) / goodness_measurer. We then say that the score of a "path" is equal to the product of the scores of the steps. The score of a temperament is equal to the sum of the scores of all paths that reach the original interval times those path lengths. The goodness of a temperament is the goodness_measurer necessary to get a score of magic_number. (This also works for scales without JI interpretations; we assign a JI interpretation to each pair of notes and compute the goodness of the best assignment.) | We say that is the score of a "step" is equal to 1/(min_cents + (the motion's error in cents)**error_power) * complexity_fondness**(the complexity of the motion) / goodness_measurer.
