Note that when we take the closest approximation of each prime, corresponding to rounding rather than e.g. using the second-best approximation possible, we call it a ''[[patent val]]'', therefore, the 5-limit patent val of 26edo is {{val| 26 41 60 }}, where the limit is 5 because that is the highest prime we are considering. If we somehow want to say prime 5 is 61 steps, then that would be represented by the {{val| 26 41 61 }} val. If we want to say that prime 5 is 59 steps, that would be represented by the {{val| 26 41 59 }} val.
