The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.

Original Wikitext content:

A //pitch class// is a set (equivalence class) of all pitches that are a whole number of octaves apart, e.g., the pitch class C consists of the Cs in all octaves. Thus the pitch class "C" is the set

[[math]]
{C<sub>''n''</sub> : ''n'' is an [[integer]]} = {..., C<sub>-2</sub>, C<sub>-1</sub>, C<sub>0</sub>, C<sub>1</sub>, C<sub>2</sub>, C<sub>3</sub> ...}
[[math]]

In terms of frequencies expressed in hertz, assuming a base frequency for middle C of 262 Hz, this would be {... 65.5, 131, 262, 524, 1028 ...}. In terms of midi note numbers, we can write it as {... 36, 48, 60, 72, 84 ...}.
