Transformation rule of a partial derivative
We know the following transformation rule:
$$ \partial'_b = \frac{\partial}{\partial x'^b} = \frac{\partial x^c}{\partial x'^b} \, \frac{\partial}{\partial x^c} = \frac{\partial x^c}{\partial x'^b} \ …

Square bracket notation for anti-symmetric part of a tensor
I know that
$A_{[a} B_{b]} = \frac{1}{2!}(A_{a}B_{b} - A_{b}B_{a})$
But how can write $E_{[a} F_{bc]}$ like the above?
Can you provide a reference where this notational matter is discussed?
