You may not be interested in becoming a concert pianist but, even if you plan to play another instrument it's good to know the notes on a keyboard.

Learn the Notes on a Keyboard

On a keyboard, the white keys are the "natural" notes, and the black keys are the "sharp" and "flat" notes. Naturals, sharps and flats are discussed more in Key Signatures.

Middle C, discussed in Notes on Staves, is a natural (white) key, and is close to the middle key of a piano, which has 88 keys. Many keyboards and organs maintain less than 88 keys, but the identical basic rule applies.

As you'll note (especially if you're looking at a keyboard), not all notes have sharps or flats (there's no C or F flat, nor is there B or E sharp).
