Kh subcomplex for pcs of cardinality 3

OpenMusic
#1

Hi All,

I have searched for what expressed in subject, but I have not found anything. The same investigating on OM code files about MathTools functions.

I know that Allen forte in his “The Structure of Atonal Music” lists Subcomplexes for pcs of cardinality from 4 to 6.

However in other papers Forte alludes to Kh Subcomplexes also for pcs of cardinality 3.

Is there some hidden function for obtaining them? If not, is it possible to have it updated on a future OM version? (or a fix file)

In fact at the moment if I use sub-complex function with pcs of cardinality 3 I obtain ‘nil’ as result.

I am on OsX El Capitan and Linux Fedora 30, OM 6.16

Thank you in advance, ciao

Hi Jerome,

Thank you for fast reply, I have updated Combine library, but, apart that I receive various different errors even evaluating functions with their default values (both on Mac and Linux), I don’t find what function could be useful for obtaining Kh subcomplex of trichords.

Any help should be appreciated…

Ciao
