Original Wikitext content:

The //structure metric// is a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_(mathematics)|distance function]] on the period-equivalenced notes of a [[constant structure]] [[periodic scale]] which give to it the property of being a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_space|finite metric space]]. If **s** is a periodic scale with quasiperiod **P**, and if **s**[i] is a note of **s**, then we may define the base points set base(**s**[i]) to be the set of integers {j | **s**[j+i] - **s**[j] = **s**[i]}. Reducing these modulo **P** to the range 0 ... **P**-1 gives a finite set of indicies of period-equivalenced notes, which have the property that the interval between the base note **s**[j] and the note i steps away, **s**[j+i], is in class(i), the interval class to which **s**[i] belongs. If the cardinality of this mod **P** reduced set is n, there are n indicies which correspond to intervals of **s**[i], and **P**-n which correspond to indicies of intervals other than **s**[i]. Then the //structure complexity// ||**s**[i]|| of **s**[i] is defined to be **P**-n, and the structure metric is defined as d(**s**[i], **s**[j]) = ||**s**[i] - **s**[j]||.
