rbrace
Represents a right curly brace or closing brace character, commonly used in mathematical set notation and grouping.
Overview
Essential for mathematical notation and programming contexts where curly braces are needed to denote sets, sequences, or groupings. Particularly useful in:
- Set-builder notation to close set definitions
- Delimiting mathematical sequences or series
- Showing function domains or ranges
- Creating custom sized braces in mathematical expressions
Often paired with \lbrace to create matching brace pairs, especially in advanced mathematical writing where standard keyboard characters are insufficient for professional typesetting.
Examples
