What is the function of sharp and flats?
Sharps are the note one semitone higher than a given natural note, for example, D-sharp is one semitone higherthan D.Flats are the note one semitone lower than a given natural note, so D-flat is one semitone lower than D.Natural signs get rid of a previous sharp or flat in the same bar, or raises or lowers a sharp or flat already included in the key signature - e.g. the F-sharp in G major.Sharps and flats can be modified further too - resulting in a double sharp or double flat - which means that any double sharp or double flat will be a whole tone higher or lower than a given natural note, for example, D double-sharp would be the same key as E and D double-flat would be the same as C. Again a natural sign would get rid of the double flat or sharp.Sometimes natural keys have to be named as either sharp or flat, e.g. in C-sharp minor the seventh degree is B, but we have to raise B to B-sharp to create a C-sharp harmonic minor scale, which uses a raised seventh. Now we could call the B-sharp 'C' but that would not be correct as we need to use all letter names in a diatonic scale, and technically the C is functioning as a raised B in the key or C-sharp minor.
What is the Enharmonic equivalent to B double flat?
"Flat" means to go down one semitone. Look at a piano (or similar) keyboard, and check what you have one to the left of "C". Since on a piano there is no black key between "B" and "C", the next semitone down from "C" is simply "B".
