1216/1215: Difference between revisions

Expansion. This one induces essentially tempered chords so I must give it an adjective
"password" by itself sounds like a comma, so I remove the "comma"

'''1216/1215''', the '''password comma''' or '''Eratosthenes' comma''' is a [[19-limit]] (also 2.3.5.19 subgroup) unnoticeable comma. It is the amount by which [[19/15]] exceeds the [[81/64|Pythagorean major third (81/64)]], or [[20/19]] falls short of the [[256/243|Pythagorean minor second (256/243)]]. It is the difference between [[19/18]], the undevicesimal semitone and [[135/128]], the major chroma, and in addition, between the [[513/512|undevicesimal comma]] and the [[schisma]].

By tempering it out is defined the '''eratosthenes temperament''', which enables the '''eratosthenes chords'''. Edos supporting this temperament includes {{EDOs| 12, 29, 41, 53, 65, 77, 87, 94, 99, 106, 111, 118, 130, 140, 152, 159, 183, 193, 205, 217, 270, 282, 311, 323, 364, 400, 422, 581, and 692}}.
