For Western music with 12 tones in octave used several definition of steps:
- * *semitone*, *half step* is 2^(1/12)
- * *whole step*, *whole tone*, *major second* is 2^(2/12)
+* *semitone*, *half step* is 2^(1/12)

*Chromatic scale* is a musical scale with twelve pitches, each a semitone
above or below another. On a modern piano or other equal-tempered
instrument, all the semitones have the same size (100 cents). In other
words, the notes of an equal-tempered chromatic scale are equally spaced.

*Diatonic scale* (or heptatonia prima) is a scale composed of seven distinct
pitch classes: ``2–2–1–2–2–2–1``.

The eight degrees of the diatonic scale are also known by traditional names:
- * 1st degree – Tonic (key note)
- * 2nd degree – Supertonic
