Boolean search

explained

A Boolean search is a type of search where you can use specific operators (words like AND, OR, NOT) to help you narrow down the results of your search. This can be helpful if you're looking for a specific piece of information and you want to make sure you're only getting results that are relevant to what you're looking for.
