Cancelling rules: deleted extra natural signs in 1st way, deleted the 2nd way entirely
Line 587: Line 587:
But what happens when accidentals are mixed with arrows? What if the key signature makes that upped C be sharp? Or what if there is a C with a sharp just before the upped C? Does the up-arrow override or "cancel" the sharp? And what if an upped C is followed by a sharpened C?

There are several possible ways to handle this issue. The default is the simplest way, to explicitly specify both arrows and accidentals every time. Thus any accidental or arrow cancels any previous ones.

Another approach allows arrows to appear alone. Accidentals cancel arrows, but arrows don't cancel accidentals.

A 3rd approach has arrows and accidentals behave independently of each other, and not cancel each other. This approach is always indicated at the top of the score. Remember the 15 versions of D?
