It's not precisely tuning math but see

Pierre -

Thanks for the link to Harmonic Entropy, that was from a couple weeks before
I joined the online tuning world. I'm trying to find my way around the
weblinks and so far other than this 26 page .pdf file from NASA that's
taking forever to load I haven't been able to get hold of a digestible
definition as yet.

Is anyone here familiar enough with the PLSQ to sum it up in a few dozen
words and/or ascii? Or can you by familiarity direct me to a little less
hieroglyphic web account? I haven't seen some of these symbols since high
school. It's hurting my teeth.

That's got to be Bailey. :)

It's an integer relation algorithm.

Yes I um. Heard.

Not what is it, what IS IT!!

I mean what *is* the algorithm.
