This and similar pages explains a lot.

A key defines what keys are played and which aren't. C major is what you play if you press all the white keys on the piano.


Every major is:

Full step
Half step and hence why there is no black key in between
Full step
Full step
Full step
Half step
Full step
Note also that in the arabic scale... majors are all full steps.

You can also play A Minor with all the white keys. Or G Mixolydian ( Mixolydian). Or B Locrian. Etc...

Sounds like you need to sign up for a basic introduction to music class.

While there is no B# (B sharp) or E#, There is a B flat and E flat which is actually an A# and D# respectively except they become flats when your going down the scale instead of up.

At least thats what I was taught!!

As for the original question, just think of sharps as another note. Whether you use them or not depends on the scale you use for your note progression however I wouldn't worry about learning scales just yet, just play what sounds right and if you have a musical ear, it will be right.

If you want to know what a scale is, play do-rey-me-fa-so-la-te-do on a piano, you've done your first scale. Chances are you hit some sharps right?
