An article teaching music theory from first principles through coding, starting with how sound works as air pressure changes. It derives the twelve-note system, scales, and chords computationally, aiming to explain why musical structures work rather than just presenting them as conventions.

Background

The author Luke Haas has previously worked on browser-based coding tools and JavaScript education platforms. This article continues his approach of teaching abstract concepts through interactive code.
