What is particularly puzzling is how a whole step can be 200c when 100 =
of anything sounds pretty complete to me.

      I think part of the problem is that we are calling these half =
steps.  The=20
      distance between E and F is no larger than between F and F#.  It =
is still=20
      100 cents.  Why do we insist on calling those things whole steps =
anyway.?=20



    James,=20

    These are half-steps(not whole steps), aka half-tones, semi-tones or =
minor seconds, and there are 100 equal divisions between them.  Each one =
of these miniscule portions is called a cent.=20
