What are these kind of brackets called in english?
>>
absolute value
>>
VertiBars
>>
uh, the same as most other languages, modulus
>>
>>8869710
Depends on context. Magnitude with respect to vectors, absolute value with respect to numbers
>>
>>8869745
An absolute value is simply a special case of a "magnitude" (I assume you meant norm).
>>
Pipes
>>
engineering student here.

There's just some kind of vertical line symbols
>>
You'd generally say "absolute value of n squared over ..." but you could call them "pipes" "vertical lines" or "absolute value lines".

>>8869750
While that's true, most people refer to the norm of a singular number as the absolute value.
>>
>>8869710
Absolute Magnitude, it is a catch all for complex numbers, vectors, etc.
>>
>Brackets (...)
>Square brackets [...]
>Curly brackets {...}
>Flat brackets |...|
>>
>>8869710
bars
>>
>>8870380
symbol of eleven
>>
Theyre called Straighty thingies
>>
>>8870515
I think you mean
Parentheses ( )
Brackets [ ]

I call it pipeline

Absolute value bars

kek'd heartily
>>
>>8869710
delta epsilon sticks
>>
>>8869710
Brackets are a spectrum
>>
>>8869750
Magnitude or norm is simply a special case of an "inner product".
>>
Unironically, I was told they were called "modulus"
>>
>>8874964
No it's not. It's a special case of a "distance."

>>8875131
It can be called a modulus for complex numbers.
