Hi,

I run scaler->cents function but it returns
more than one value:

CM> (scaler->cents 3/2)
702
-0.045043945
CM> (scaler->cents 5/4)
386
0.3136902
CM> (scaler->cents 6/5)
316
-0.3587036


I'be browsed the CM dictionary but couldn't find
an explanation.

Can somebody explain the meaning of the second
value to me?

Happy hacking,
Emre
