How do you finger A Sharp and E Sharp on the trumpet? I think it's obvious, but I can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated.

a sharp is the same as b flat (first finger)
e sharp...well it depends on which e low e is the same as f natural (first)
high e sharp (second finger)

A sharp is first valve, the same as B flat. But E sharp is first valve. Even the higher one is still first. The high second valve is F sharp, a half step too high.
