Answer 4

Curly brackets or braces { }

Curly brackets (also called braces) are sometimes used in prose to indicate a series of equal choices: “Select your animal {goat, sheep, cow, horse} and follow me”. They are used in specialized ways in poetry and music (to mark repeats or joined lines). The musical terms for this mark joining staves are “accolade” and “brace.” In mathematics they delimit sets. In many programming languages, they enclose groups of statements. Such languages are therefore called curly bracket languages.

Presumably due to the similarity of the words brace and bracket (although they do not share an etymology), many people casually treat brace as a synonym for bracket. Therefore, when it is necessary to avoid any possibility of confusion, such as in computer programming, it may be best to use the term curly bracket rather than brace. However, general usage in North American English favours the latter form.[citation needed] The term curly braces is redundant since no other type of brace exists. Indian programmers often use the name “flower bracket”.[citation needed]

Curly brackets are often used in internet communities and through instant messaging to indicate hugging.[4]

I can't draw it either!!!

Answer 5

They are called braces, or curly brackets.

To practice, I recommend getting some lined paper (like in a notebook).  My guess is that you are making the top part too big or too small.  Using the lined paper, try drawing each brace twice as tall as normal, so that the middle part lands on a line.  That will help you to get used to centering it.  Practice by writing a whole page of them.  After that, you should be all set.

I hope this helps.

Answer 6

They are called curly brackets

Just another form of parenthesis

in addition to ( ) [ ]

and angle brackets or chevrons:  < >

You can type them by

pressing ALT 123  {

and ALT 125 }

If you're trying to hand write them

it just takes practice to get the hang of it.

Answer 7

What kind of sign is it? I'm not sure what you're asking.

Answer 8

practice! start by drawing the parenthesis by themselves.

then try putting the cusps, concentrating that it must be put in the center.

just practice. don't make the ends too far. don't make the opening too big.
