Brackets and Parentheses
-
@Martin said in Putting an array in a struct.:
These are brackets
()Wait hold on those are called parenthesis! I don't think I've ever heard then referred to as brackets in America.

@Retrocade_media those greeks, also known as curved brackets

I thought "" would be paranthesis
In germany "" they are called Anführungszeichen
Or you can say Gänsefüschen what would be translated Duckfoots

OK, this is degenerating into an English lesson rapidly. Please try to keep on-topic people!

@petermeisenstein We'll get back on topic after this I swear, but "" are called Quotation marks

They are fast forward and rewind symbols.
And this “ is an inverted double apostrophe.

@pianofire So now we can talk about brackets and parentheses very nice

Speaking of cultural differences, I was asked to help with some junior school maths homework here once and I was like ‘okay, easy’ and then the questions were all like ’1,5 • 1,5 = ?’ And I was like ’what the heck even is this???’. Sad day.
