The syntonic comma on the lattice
Pitch classes reached by multiplying by three — a fifth, one step east — and by five — a major third, one step north. Two routes to the same note name arrive at different pitches, and the syntonic comma is the size of that disagreement: 21.51 cents.
Drawn above with its standard settings, which is almost never how an essay draws it: an essay states the numbers it is arguing about, so the figure a reader meets there is about that argument rather than about the drawing in general. Every option a placement passes is checked against the ones this function actually reads, because an option it does not read is silently ignored and the figure quietly draws what is above instead.
It makes a noise. 6 of its 6 placements carry sound, built from the same numbers as the drawing, offering these buttons: Both arrivals — 2.0¢ apart, Both arrivals — 21.5¢ apart, Both arrivals — 41.1¢ apart, One, then the other.
