BRACKETED Meaning and
Definition
-
Bracketed is an adjective that is used to describe something that has been included within a set of brackets, or a pair of curved lines. Brackets are punctuation marks that are shaped like a combination of square brackets and parentheses, also known as parentheses, and are commonly used in writing to set off or enclose additional or explanatory information within a sentence. When a word, phrase, or sentence is bracketed, it means that it has been enclosed within a pair of these punctuation marks to separate it from the rest of the text. This is often done to indicate that the bracketed content provides additional context or clarification.
Bracketed can also refer to a mathematical notation using a pair of brackets to represent interval notation. In mathematics, intervals are a range or set of numbers between two given values, and they can be expressed using bracket notation. Square brackets indicate that the endpoints of the interval are included or closed, while parentheses indicate that the endpoints are excluded or open. Thus, when a mathematical expression is bracketed using square brackets, it signifies that both endpoints of the interval are part of the solution set. On the other hand, when parentheses are used, it denotes that the endpoints are not included in the solution set.
Overall, whether in written language or mathematical notation, bracketed indicates the inclusion or enclosure of additional information or the delineation of a specific range of values.
