a: time signature ~
b: a code

What:

"A time signature is like a code that tells you two things: 1) how many beats in a measure and 2) what type of note value gets one beat. The top number of a time signature tells us how many beats per measure (irrelevant to your questions) while the bottom number tells us what gets the beat."
