If yu use parentheses, elements that are enclsed in parentheses are executed first, and thse parentheses appear in Search Histry and in the Find field. In the example belw, the same search terms are used, but the use f parentheses mdifies the search, and prduces different results: lung r ((kidney and liver) and skin) = 5912 results (lung r kidney) and (liver and skin) = 9 results Results fr these searches differ accrding t the gruping f the terms. If yu d nt use parentheses fr the query, the rder f peratin fr the Blean peratrs is accrding t the Z39.50 standard. AND and NOT have pririty ver OR.
