Please make a wikitext table which shows how well every hyperconsonance, consonance, and ambisonance is approximated in every EDO from 1edo to 53edo, as well as showing each of their estimated number of dissonances.</pre> | Please make a wikitext table which shows how well every hyperconsonance, consonance, and ambisonance is approximated in every EDO from 1edo to 53edo, as well as showing each of their estimated number of dissonances.</pre> | ||

All the columns N/1 (eg 2/1, 3/1) are already correct. For the other columns, some cells are correct and some not. What you need to do is subtract the error (in cents (¢)) of the two harmonics involved, but don't disregard their direction. For example if harmonic 5 has +10¢ error and harmonic 3 has -9¢ error, then the total error of interval 5/3 is 19¢ (opposite errors add). If harmonic 5 has +10¢ error and harmonic 3 has +9¢ error, then the total error of interval 5/3 is 1¢ (same-direction errors subtract).</pre> | All the columns N/1 (eg 2/1, 3/1) are already correct.
