An Attempt to List All Possible Ragas, using Mathematica

by Adam Greenberg

aroha, avaroha possibilities

notes part

assume Sa is always used, so for example, need to choose 4 notes for up and 4 for down chosen in {5, 5} set, with Sa always added to the front

so 15 ways to choose 4 (or choose two to abandon) from plainnotes

forming up/down sequences

switching in alternate sharp/flats

32 ways, or

have all the Msharps included now...

M sharps done, now others, taking alternate note cases one by one

adding Sa back into all of them

reversing order of descent pattern to make it an actual descent
