Talk:Subgroup Temperament Families, Relationships, and Genes

Confusion about rank of a gene

"The dimension or rank of a gene is simply its rank as a temperament (which is one less than the rank of the subgroup is being tempered from)"

I don't understand the part in parentheses here. Why is it one less? —Keenan Pepper (talk) 21:14, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Because it tempers out one comma? FloraC (talk) 07:10, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

Oops, cruft from an earlier revision where I was only looking at codimension-1 genes. Edited Mike Battaglia (talk) 03:52, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
