plain-language theorem explainer

swingRatio_moderate supplies the constant real number 3/2 as the moderate swing ratio. Researchers extending the eight-tick octave into musical rhythm cite it when linking swing to the fifth interval. The definition is a direct constant assignment with no lemmas or computation.

Claim. The moderate swing ratio is the real number $3/2$.

background

The MusicTheory.Rhythm module builds rhythmic structures on the eight-tick octave that follows from D=3 in the forcing chain T0-T8. Sibling definitions such as ticksPerCycle, subdivisionLevels, and the various tempo_ lemmas organize measures into eighth notes, triplets, and subdivisions at fixed frequencies. This constant sets the moderate swing value, consistent with the phi self-similar fixed point and the Recognition Composition Law.

proof idea

The declaration is a direct definition that assigns the value 3/2. No lemmas or tactics are applied; it functions as a primitive constant for downstream use.

why it matters

This definition is referenced by the theorem swing_moderate_is_fifth, which confirms the value by reflexivity. It supplies the moderate swing ratio inside the rhythmic reading of the eight-tick octave (T7), connecting musical intervals to the phi-ladder constants and the underlying functional equation without new hypotheses.
