Clarified what LeapWeek[71] and LeapDay[97] are, and also discovered that LeapDay97's generator is 33\400 and also edited accordingly.

400edo doubles [[200edo]], which holds a record for the best 3/2 fifth approximation.  
400 factors into  2<sup>4</sup> × 5<sup>2</sup>, with subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 25, 40, 50, 80, 100, and 200 }}. Notably, 200edo holds a record for the best 3/2 fifth approximation.  


400 is also the number of years in the Gregorian calendar's leap cycle. 400edo supports the LeapWeek[71] scale with 231\400 as the generator, which is close to 5/12 syntonic comma meantone. Likewise, 400edo contains LeapDay[97] scale, which is a [[maximal evenness]] version of the leap rule currently in use in the world today. The scale has a 33\400 generator which is associated to [[18/17]], making it an approximation of [[18/17 equal-step tuning]]. Since it tempers out the 93347/93312, a stack of three 18/17's is equated with 19/16.
