VISITOR COMMENT:
Maybe it's because everyone who's commented is just learning scales but there is a huge flaw in at least one of your scales. You have the c sharp scale listed as:
1. The first note is C#.
2. A whole step from C# takes us to D#.
3. Another whole step takes us to E#.
4. A half step takes us to F#.
5. One whole step higher is G#.
6. Another whole step higher is A#.
7. Another whole step take us to B#.
8. And finally, a half step higher than B# is C#.
The C sharp major key signature has 7 sharps. (which is correct, but you have listed 8)
There is no such thing as an E#, that would be an F. Nor is there a B#, that would be C.
E and B have no sharps, and C and F have no flats. Maybe it was just a typo, but for people just learning theory it might be confusing.
So the correct way to form a C sharp scale is
1. The first note is C#.
2. A whole step from C# takes us to D#.
3. Another whole step takes us to F.
4. A half step takes us to F#.
5. One whole step higher is G#.
6. Another whole step higher is A#.
7. Another whole step take us to C.
8. And finally, a half step higher than C is C#.
Piano-Keyboard-Guide.com COMMENT:
You are too brave. You are wrong and it means you have a lot to learn before trying to correct others and making a mess. This is basic stuff and there is no typo. I did not list 8 sharps; I only repeated C# at a higher octave. Firstly, when forming a major scale, you never repeat a letter. So you cannot have F and F# in a major scale, for example. I will advise you to learn about forming major scales. Learn the difference between keys on the keyboard and notes. Learn key signatures and the circle of fifths. Learning starts with humility. All the best!
