How can you tell if you have perfect pitch?

It is quite easy to tell if you have perfect pitch by having any musical instrument, such as a piano, clarinet or an electronic keyboard, if you know that the pitch of the notes produced by the instrument are correct, and not out of tune. Simply hum or sing any note, and try to guess what the note is, eg D. Then play a D on the instrument; if the pitch is the same, you have perfect pitch. Try other pitches by singing or humming, play the note you are singing and see if you've guessed the pitch correctly. If you are still guessing correctly, you have perfect pitch, and if you don't guess correctly you haven't.
