How can we add ")" into a string?

I want to write a code that prints out ": )" when it runs. I tried this code: System.out.print(": )") But the Code Playground keeps pairing the ) between the quote marks with the ( before the quote marks. Does anyone have solution?

Workaround for now: char close_bracket = ')'; System.out.print(": " + close_bracket

Although Code Playground seems to "think" that the right parenthesis in the double quote is paired to the first left parenthesis, it isn't. System.out.print(": )"); works just fine. Nonetheless, you can provide a feedback to SL in order for the devs to quickly rectify this issue.
