In addition to being canonical and defactored, DCF has other important properties: | In addition to being canonical and defactored, DCF has other important properties: | ||
* | * '''integer''': contains only integer terms. | ||
* | * '''full-rank''': removes rank deficiencies, or in other words, rows that are all zeros | ||
* '''preserves genuine unit-fraction-of-an-prime periods''': at first glance, when a pivot is not equal to 1, it might trigger you to think that the mapping is enfactored. But temperaments can legitimately have generators that divide primes evenly, such as 5-limit Blackwood, {{vector|{{map|5 8 0}} {{map|0 0 1}}}}, which divides the octave into 5 parts.<ref>Any form that enforces pivots all be 1's would fail this criteria.</ref> | |||
