1. Logic AND/OR: AND, OR

☆ Note that AND, OR must be capitalized, otherwise they are considered ordinary words, not search instructions.

☆ Unlike normal programming languages, the OR instruction takes precedence over the AND instruction.

☆ Abbreviation: AND instruction is generally replaced by a space, not clearly written. In addition, the AND command can be replaced with +. The OR directive can be replaced by |.

☆ Example: Inverted or Signature files or file or index, it is equivalent to (Inverted or Signature) (files or file or index)

2. Logic not: -

☆ Example: Search engine history - Culture - Chinese history - World history

3. Complete match:" ... "

☆ Example:" world war I" Search for World War I

4. Wildcard: *?

☆ In keeping with our usual custom, "*" represents a series of characters, "?" Represents a single character.

☆ Example: progr? m

☆ Tip: Don't expect Google to be available via progr? m searches for program because progr and m are treated as separate words, and one character is allowed between the two words, that's all.

5.site: Search for a website or domain name

☆ Example: Search engine tips site:edu.cn

☆ This means a page on the Chinese Education and research website (edu.cn) about search engine skills.
