Types of Searches
179
Plus Sign ( + )
To specify that a word must be found in a matching document, prefix the word with a plus sign (
+ ), a special character.
The query "all +good things" will find all stories with good that also have either all or things in
them. Make sure you include the space before the plus sign. Otherwise, it will be treated as part
of the preceding word.
Minus Sign ( - )
To specify that a word must be excluded from all matching documents, prefix the word with a
minus sign ( - ).
The query "all -good things" will find all stories with good that also have either all or things in
them. Again, white space is needed before the minus sign.
Basic Combinations - Boolean Operators
To search for stories containing any combination of a set of words, use the vertical bar character
( | ) with a space on either side of it.
The query snow | sleet | hail will find stories containing snow, sleet, or hail (or any combination
thereof)
To search for stories containing all words in a given set, use the ampersand character ( & ) with a
space on either side of it.
The query weather & climate will find stories containing both weather and climate.
Complex Combinations
To specify the order in which you want the expression to be evaluated, use parentheses.
The query (give & receive) | lonely will find stories containing both the words give and receive,
as well as stories containing the word lonely.
The query share & (give | receive) will find stories containing the words share and give, as well
as stories containing the words share and receive.
Negation
To negate the sense of a search term, use the exclamation point ( ! ) or the special word NOT.
They can be used in conjunction with either an individual word or a parenthesized search
expression.
