Expand description

A trait for types that have an enharmonic distance.

Required Methods§

source

fn enharmonic_distance(&self) -> i8

Returns the enharmonic distance of the type (most likely an interval).

Due to the nature of enharmonic intervals, the distance is always an integer, and it looks a bit funky. Basically, using the circle of fifths, the distance is the number of fifths between the two notes. For example, a perfect fifth is 1 fifth away, and a major second is always two fifths away (look at the implementation). This preserves enharmonic correctness.
