# \$1and
<a name="and-aggregation"></a>

The `$and` aggregation operator evaluates multiple expressions and returns `true` only if all expressions evaluate to `true`. If any expression is `false`, it returns `false`.

**Parameters**
+ `expressions`: An array of expressions to evaluate.

## Example (MongoDB Shell)
<a name="and-aggregation-examples"></a>

The following example demonstrates using the `$and` operator to check if products meet multiple criteria.

**Create sample documents**

```
db.products.insertMany([
  { _id: 1, name: "Laptop", price: 1200, inStock: true },
  { _id: 2, name: "Mouse", price: 25, inStock: false },
  { _id: 3, name: "Keyboard", price: 75, inStock: true }
]);
```

**Query example**

```
db.products.aggregate([
  {
    $project: {
      name: 1,
      price: 1,
      inStock: 1,
      affordable: {
        $and: [
          { $lt: ["$price", 100] },
          { $eq: ["$inStock", true] }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
]);
```

**Output**

```
[
  { _id: 1, name: 'Laptop', price: 1200, inStock: true, affordable: false },
  { _id: 2, name: 'Mouse', price: 25, inStock: false, affordable: false },
  { _id: 3, name: 'Keyboard', price: 75, inStock: true, affordable: true }
]
```
