: From [[interval|the page]], we have the definition "An interval is the difference in pitch between two notes. Human pitch perception is logarithmic, therefore an interval can be described with a frequency ratio or a logarithmic measure of that ratio, such as cents". The frequency ratio is the rational number, which is what goes into the mapping function, so seems more accurate than "interval", no? | : From [[interval|the page]], we have the definition "An interval is the difference in pitch between two notes.
