::::::::::Kite, I find all those terms you suggest above to be acceptable (except I don't know what "edonoi" means). I have used many of them myself in the past. But none of them is a potential replacement for "val" since vals include both "rank-1 mappings" and "mapping rows". Douglas and I have chosen to use "map" for this purpose in our pedagogical materials, thereby giving it a more specific meaning than "mapping" within the domain of tuning theory. --[[User:Dave Keenan|Dave Keenan]] ([[User talk:Dave Keenan|talk]]) 06:45, 10 October 2021 (UTC) | ::::::::::Kite, I find all those terms you suggest above to be acceptable (except I don't know what "edonoi" means).

::::::::::: EDONOI means equal division of a non-octave interval. It's a fairly widespread term. "none of them is a potential replacement for val" I'm proposing edonoi-mapping, mapping-row etc. as replacements for specific use cases of val, and the term map or mapping as the general replacement for val. So I think we agree that val can be completely replaced by map/mapping. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 21:09, 16 October 2021 (UTC) | |||
