The '''circle of fifths text table''' shows the number of flats or sharps in each of the [[diatonic]] [[musical scales]] and keys. Both [[C major]] and [[A minor]] keys have no flats or sharps.

In the table, minor keys are written with lowercase letters, for brevity. However, in common [[guitar tabs]] notation, a minor key is designated with a lowercase "m". For example, A-minor is "Am" and D-sharp minor is "D{{music|#}}m").
