Square brackets are only used with function calls. The enclosing square brackets , [ ... ], either 

(1) don't belong and should be removed or changed to parentheses ( ... ); or 

(2) are missing the function for which they are enclosing an argument.

Hello,
I am new to Mathematica and cannot figure out this syntax problem:

Syntax::tsntxi: "[((x-a)/A)^2+((y-b)/B)^2-2*r*(x-a)*(y-b)/(A*B)]" is incomplete; more input is needed.

Can someone give me some insight?
Thank you very much.
