Common uses & context
The character '}' — Right Curly Bracket — has ASCII code 125 (0x7D), octal 0175, binary 01111101. Right curly brace. Closes code blocks, JSON objects, and template placeholders.
Punctuation and symbol codes carry the most syntactic weight per byte in programming: a single '}' can change how a parser reads an entire expression. When '}' needs to appear as literal data rather than syntax, you often have to escape it — in string literals, in regular expressions, in URLs (where it becomes %7D), or in HTML. Knowing its exact code point (125) helps when you filter, validate, or sanitize input byte by byte.
