Imagine a code about 10kb in size, that has a missing bracket(or an extra bracket). How long it would take you to spot it?

You'd probably find it pretty quickly, if you have a half decent compiler.

My first C program was missing a bracket and the compiler said it had 150 errors, I almost gave up programming then and there.

Just auto-indent the whole file and it jumps right out.

unless you accidentally the whole file instead.

You seem to have misplaced your English.

[] = brackets. These are the only characters referred to as brackets in English.
() = parenthesis.
{} = braces.
<> = not supposed to be grouped at all. Less than and greater than. They have no English name as a pair.

() = brackets
[] = square brackets
{} = curly brackets, braces

() = brackets
not in english.

[] = square brackets
{} = curly brackets, braces
correct according to unicode, but {} are never called brackets by people who actually know english.

I've been taught English in school for seven years, but nobody ever mentioned distinctions between {([ braces. I'm intrigued.

But then again, does it even matter? I'm pretty sure most people will understand what one is talking about regardless.

I don't think anyone outside of programming calls {} braces. That still sounds funny to me. They've always just been curly brackets.

<> = diamond.
{} = curly braces.
