An EPD, or equal pitch division, is a kind of arithmetic and monotonic tuning.
n-EDp: n equal (pitch) divisions of interval p (e.g. 12-EDO) (equivalent to rank-1 temperament of p/n)
The most common example of this type of tuning is 12-EDO, standard tuning, which takes the interval of the octave, and equally divides its pitch into 12 parts. For long, we could call this 12-EPDO, for 12 equal pitch divisions of the octave (whenever pitch is the chosen kind of quality, we can assume it, and skip pointing it out; that's why 12-EDO is the better name).
