I'm a self-taught coder with no formal CS training, and as such have found over recent years that I've been lacking (among other things) some of the appropriate vocabulary to talk about programming unambiguously.
Consequently, I'm always on the look-out for more formal and concise terms where previously I may have used more simplistic language - in this case, 'braces', 'brackets' and 'parentheses' struck me as being the best way to describe {}, [] and (), compared to curly, square and normal brackets (as I've likewise always called them). <> will have to remain angle brackets though I think.
