@XenonRush Not really. This is pretty basic stuff.

@XenonRush I do. I graduated with a diploma in music back in my early twenties.

@Jenny1234 Whole and half refer to the intervals between the tones to be played.
C to D is a step of one whole tone,E to F is a step of Half a tone.
That's all it is.
Nothing more complex than that.
Google it if you still can't grasp it.

C to C# is a half step. D to E is a whole step.
