Close Bracket

Sometimes referred to as square brackets, a bracket is a punctuation mark found in pairs. There are two types of brackets: the open bracket ( ) and the closed bracket ( ). The open bracket has an open end towards the right, and the closed bracket has an open end towards the left. Brackets are the two keys found to the right of the P key on a US QWERTY keyboard.

How to create an open and close square bracket
