There are a total of seven sharps and seven flats.
However, in different key signatures there are different numbers of sharps and flats (not all have seven sharps or seven flats)!
Another thing to note is that a key signature can only have sharps or only have flats (they never mix- at least not in the key signature). Or they can have no sharps or flats, as in the case of C Major and A minor.

∙ 13y agoA sharp means the note is slightly higher. They say it's a "half step" higher because a half step is the smallest amount of movement you can have in Western music.
A flat is the same in the opposite direction: it's a half step lower.
For example, "G flat" would be lower than "G", and "G" would be lower than "G sharp"
BONUS: the sharp sign can be typed "#", and flat sign can be typed with a lowercase "b". The above sentence would read: "Gb" would be lower than "G", and "G" would be lower than "G#"
