additional options that allow a user to locate information or files
easier, we have listed some of these options that may or may not be

- Many searches commonly found on
websites offer the availability of grouping, for example, text
within quotes: "search example", searches for anything
containing search next to example, but not search and/or example. Another
example of grouping is utilizing a '+' in-between the text, for
example: search+example.
