A double natural is a symbol that has two naturals (♮♮). It may be used to cancel a double flat or double sharp, but in modern notation a single natural sign (♮) is acceptable. [3] The same principle can be applied when canceling a triple sign (triple flat / triple sharp) or beyond. [4] [5]
Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...
In musical notation, an accidental is a symbol that indicates an alteration of a given pitch.The most common accidentals are the flat (♭) and the sharp (♯), which represent alterations of a semitone, and the natural (♮), which cancels a sharp or flat.
The natural symbol (♮) indicates that any previously applied accidentals should be cancelled. Advanced musicians use the double-sharp symbol to raise the pitch by two semitones, the double-flat symbol to lower it by two semitones, and even more advanced accidental symbols (e.g. for quarter tones).

It is linear in nature, similar to a printed language and different from the two-dimensional nature of standard printed music notation.
