The '''diatonic range''' is a size range of [[fifth]] interval defined by the corner intervals 4\7 and 3\5.
The '''diatonic range''' is a size range of the [[fifth]] interval defined by the bounds 4\7 and 3\5.


Stacked ([[octave-reduced]]) fifths (<code>R5</code>) within this range build scales with distinguishable "diatonic whole tones" (<code>2*R5 - P8</code>), "diatonic semitones" (<code>3*P8 - 5*R5</code>), and "chromatic semitones" (<code>M2 - m2</code>) of a non-negative size. Some examples:
