Logical operators combine or manipulate conditions in a SQL query.
| Operator | Meaning | |
| :-------: | :------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------ |
| `AND` | Returns true if both operands are true. Otherwise, returns false. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#and) |
| `BETWEEN` | Returns true if the left operand is within the range of the right operand. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#between) |
| `EXISTS` | Returns true if the results of a subquery are not empty. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#exists) |
| `IN` | Returns true if the left operand is in the right operand list. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#in) |
| `LIKE` | Returns true if the left operand matches the right operand pattern string. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#like) |
| `NOT` | Negates the subsequent expression. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#not) |
| `OR` | Returns true if any operand is true. Otherwise, returns false. | [{{< icon "link" >}}](#or) |

## AND {.monospace}
The `AND` operand returns `true` if both operands are `true`. Otherwise, it returns false.
This operator is typically used in the [`WHERE` clause](/influxdb/version/reference/sql/where/)
to combine multiple conditions.
{{< flex >}}
{{% flex-content "two-thirds operator-example" %}}
```sql
SELECT true AND false AS "AND condition"
```
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{% flex-content "third operator-example" %}}
| AND condition |
| :------------ |
| false |
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{< /flex >}}
##### Examples

{{% expand "`AND` operator in the `WHERE` clause" %}}
```sql
SELECT *
FROM home
WHERE
co > 10
AND room = 'Kitchen'
```

| co | hum | room | temp | time |
| --: | ---: | :------ | ---: | :------------------- |

## BETWEEN {.monospace}
The `BETWEEN` operator returns `true` if the left numeric operand is within the
range specified in the right operand. Otherwise, it returns `false`
{{< flex >}}
{{% flex-content "two-thirds operator-example" %}}
```sql
SELECT 6 BETWEEN 5 AND 8 AS "BETWEEN condition"
```
{{% /flex-content %}}

## EXISTS {.monospace}
The `EXISTS` operator returns `true` if result of a
[correlated subquery](/influxdb/version/reference/sql/subqueries/#correlated-subqueries)
is not empty. Otherwise it returns `false`.
_See [SQL subquery operators](/influxdb/version/reference/sql/subqueries/#subquery-operators)._
##### Examples
{{< expand-wrapper >}}
{{% expand "`EXISTS` operator with a subquery in the `WHERE` clause" %}}
```sql
SELECT *
FROM
home home_actions
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM home
WHERE
home.co = home_actions.co - 1
)
ORDER BY time
```
{{% influxdb/custom-timestamps %}}
| co | hum | room | temp | time |

## IN {.monospace}
The `IN` operator returns `true` if the left operand is in the right operand
list or subquery result. Otherwise, it returns `false`.
{{< flex >}}
{{% flex-content "two-thirds operator-example" %}}
```sql
SELECT 'John' IN ('Jane', 'John') AS "IN condition"
```
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{% flex-content "third operator-example" %}}
| IN condition |
| :----------- |
| true |
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{< /flex >}}
_See [SQL subquery operators](/influxdb/version/reference/sql/subqueries/#subquery-operators)._
##### Examples
{{< expand-wrapper >}}
{{% expand "`IN` operator with a list in the `WHERE` clause" %}}
```sql
SELECT *
FROM home
WHERE
room IN ('Bathroom', 'Bedroom', 'Kitchen')
LIMIT 4
```

## LIKE {.monospace}
The `LIKE` operator returns `true` if the left operand matches the string pattern
specified in the right operand.
`LIKE` expressions support [SQL wildcard characters](#sql-wildcard-characters).
{{< flex >}}
{{% flex-content "two-thirds operator-example" %}}
```sql
SELECT 'John' LIKE 'J_%n' AS "LIKE condition"
```
{{% /flex-content %}}

### SQL wildcard characters
The InfluxDB SQL implementation supports the following wildcard characters when
using the `LIKE` operator to match strings to a pattern.
| Character | Description |
| :-------: | :--------------------------------- |
| `%` | Represents zero or more characters |
| `_` | Represents any single character |
## NOT {.monospace}
The `NOT` operator negates the subsequent expression.
{{< flex >}}
{{% flex-content "two-thirds operator-example" %}}
```sql
SELECT NOT true AS "NOT condition"
```
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{% flex-content "third operator-example" %}}
| NOT condition |
| :------------ |
| false |
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{< /flex >}}

## OR {.monospace}
The `OR` operator returns `true` if any operand is `true`.
Otherwise, it returns `false`.
This operator is typically used in the [`WHERE` clause](/influxdb/version/reference/sql/where/)
to combine multiple conditions.
{{< flex >}}
{{% flex-content "two-thirds operator-example" %}}
```sql
SELECT true OR false AS "OR condition"
```
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{% flex-content "third operator-example" %}}
| OR condition |
| :----------- |
| true |
{{% /flex-content %}}
{{< /flex >}}
##### Examples
{{< expand-wrapper >}}

```sql
SELECT *

WHERE
co > 20
OR temp > 23
