# Using the AND operator

You can search for multiple terms by using the [`AND`](https://developers.google.com/code-search/reference#operators)
operator. This operator returns results only when the terms on both sides of the
operator are true.

A search for multiple terms uses `AND` implicitly. For example, the following
search returns Python files that contain the term `server`:

    server lang:python

Alternatively, you can supply the AND operator explicitly. For example:

    server AND lang:python
