Re: 12th root of x

[Montgomery-Smith, Stephen]

You can also get it in cents using the formula:

1200 * log(x) / log(2)

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all your inputs. Here is what I got:

Octave:
>> x = (531441/524288)^(1/12)
x =  1.0011
>> rats(x)
ans =   886/885

Scala:
>>insert
_Position:2
_Pitch:886/885
>>show
 0:          1/1               0.000000 unison, perfect prime
 1:       1024/729         588.269995 Pythagorean diminished fifth
 2:        886/885          1.955092

Finally got my answer 1.96 when rounded in cents for 12th of pythagorean
comma for fifths
