Application

During the summer of 2006, armed with 2 years’ worth of object-oriented Java programming and a borrowed copy of Aaron Hillegass’ [‘Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X’][3], I finally made it past Apple’s [Currency Converter Tutorial][1] and wrote a simple Cocoa application of my own using XCode and Interface Builder.

Given a vibrating scale length and number of frets, the program uses the [12th Root of two][2] to calculate the fret positions that will ensure proper intonation for the 12 tone scale.
