# Curly brace
> Multipurpose shell syntax.
> More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html>.
- Isolate variable names:
`echo ${HOME}work`
- Brace expand sequences:
`echo {1..3} {a..c}{dir1,dir2,dir3}`
- Check if `variable` is set before returning text:
`echo ${variable:+variable is set and contains $variable}`
- Set default values in case `variable` is unset:
`echo ${variable:-default}`
- Return `variable` length in characters:
`echo ${#variable}`
- Return a string slice:
`echo ${variable:3:7}`
- Recursively expand a `variable`:
`echo ${!variable}`
- Capitalize all the characters:
`echo ${variable^^}`
