Original Wikitext content:

The Pythagorean or ditonic comma (about 23.460¢) is the interval 531441/524288 = |-19 12> (see [[monzo]]). It could also be called the 12-comma as it is the amount by which twelve fifths exceed seven octaves, or in other words (3/2)^12/2^7 and it also can be written as the ratio between the [[2187_2048|apotome]] and the [[256_243|Pythagorean minor second]], (2187/2048)/(256/243). For EDOs up to 300, it is tempered out if and only if the EDO is a multiple of 12, and hence for instance by [[24edo]], [[72edo]] and [[84edo]].
