This could be interesting::; if 50/60 is the 0th, then 100/120 would be the 1st ?? Makes sense to me!! No harmonics of the fundamental frequency would be the 0th; and 1st harmonic would be at twice the fundamental frequency.....
(I know this is not the convention, but it seems logical: first harmonic is fundamental plus the fundamental (once); second is the fundamental plus the fundamental x 2, etc..... ). I like it!
