When I finished my assignment (what a tough one it was!), I took a nap.

Parentheses are often placed at the end of the sentence. Furthermore, citations for a direct quotation need to be set apart by parentheses.

Parentheses allow a writer to provide additional information. The extra information between parentheses might be a single word, a fragment (as in this case), or multiple complete sentences.
