This braille table lists the fourteen brackets and two vertical bars found in the UEB (Unified English Braille) tables.
Brackets are usually unspaced. The multiline brackets are used when a print bracket spans more than one line of text, such as vectors and matrices, and must be vertically aligned in the braille.
