def key_to_notes(key, *, unicode=True):
"""Lists all 12 note names in the chromatic scale, as spelled according to
a given key (major or minor).
This function exists to resolve enharmonic equivalences between different
spellings for the same pitch (e.g. C♯ vs D♭), and is primarily useful when producing
human-readable outputs (e.g. plotting) for pitch content.
Note names are decided by the following rules:
1. If the tonic of the key has an accidental (sharp or flat), that accidental will be
used consistently for all notes.
2. If the tonic does not have an accidental, accidentals will be inferred to minimize
the total number used for diatonic scale degrees.
3. If there is a tie (e.g., in the case of C:maj vs A:min), sharps will be preferred.
Parameters
----------
key : string
Must be in the form TONIC:key. Tonic must be upper case (``CDEFGAB``),
key must be lower-case (``maj`` or ``min``).
Single accidentals (``b!♭`` for flat, or ``#♯`` for sharp) are supported.
Examples: ``C:maj, Db:min, A♭:min``.
unicode : bool
If ``True`` (default), use Unicode symbols (♯𝄪♭𝄫)for accidentals.
If ``False``, Unicode symbols will be mapped to low-order ASCII representations::
♯ -> #, 𝄪 -> ##, ♭ -> b, 𝄫 -> bb
Returns
-------
notes : list
``notes[k]`` is the name for semitone ``k`` (starting from C)
under the given key. All chromatic notes (0 through 11) are
included.
