VERSION
version 0.0102
SYNOPSIS
print join(', ', barycenter(3)), "\n";
@chords = [qw(3 4 5), qw(0 4 7)];
printf "D: %.3f\n", distance($chords[0], $chords[1]);
print evenness_index($chords[0]);
print orbit_distance(@chords), "\n";
print forte_distance(@chords), "\n";DESCRIPTION
Barycentric chord analysis
FUNCTIONS
barycenter()
Return the barycenter (the "central coordinate") given an integer representing the number of notes in a chord.
distance()
Interval space distance metric between chords.
* This is used by the orbit_distance() and evenness_index() functions.
orbit_distance()
$d = orbit_distance($chord1, $chord2);Return the distance from chord1 to the minimum of the cyclic permutations for chord2.
forte_distance()
TODO
cyclic_permutation()
Return the list of cyclic permutations of the given intervals.
evenness_index()
Return a chord distance from the barycenter.
