What is meant by minor and major in piano or the difference between them?

Q. I.am.learning.piano.online.and.i.am.confused.with.these!!!

A. A major key/chord is happy sounding, and is used in christmas songs. these are my favorite songs! they sometimes have sharps.

minor key/chord is sad, depressing, and makes you want to cry. eg. funeral march, these usually have flats.

Original Question

What are the notes/ fingerings for these arpeggios on piano?
Q. What are the notes for C major C minor G major F major A minor D minor? Please help by telling me the notes or directing me to a website about piano chords, arpeggios or broken chords.

A. Arpeggios , as I'm sure you know are the notes of a chord played consecutively rather than together. So for C major you would play (going up the scale)
C E G C,
then back down the scale.
C minor
C Dsharp F
G major
G B D
F major
F A C
A minor
A C E
D minor
D F A
The fingerings for arpeggios are (right hand) thumb, 3rd finger, little finger 3rd finger, thumb.
or thumb, 3rd finger, thumb little finger, thumb, 3rd finger thumb.
Here are some useful sites (be sure to look at other pages than the ones directly linked.)
