What do we mean by whole steps and half steps? Whole steps and half steps represent
the distance between notes. For example, the distance between E and F is a half
step. The distance between B and C is also a half step. Take a look at your piano
keyboard. You will realize that there is no key between E and F and between B and
C. Two more examples of half steps (also called semitones) are the distance between
C and C sharp and D and D flat.
