/**
 * The <code><b>AND</b></code> logical operator chains multiple criteria together. A valid operand
 * of an <code><b>AND</b></code> operator must be one of: <code><b>TRUE</b></code>,
 * <code><b>FALSE</b></code>, and <code><b>NULL</b></code>. The <code><b>AND</b></code> operator has
 * a higher precedence than the <code><b>OR</b></code> operator.
 * <p>
 * <code><b>NULL</b></code> represents unknown. Therefore, if one operand is <code><b>NULL</b></code>
 * and the other operand is <code><b>FALSE</b></code> the result is <code><b>FALSE</b></code>,
 * because one <code><b>FALSE</b></code> operand is sufficient for a <code><b>FALSE</b></code>
 * result. If one operand is <code><b>NULL</b></code> and the other operand is either
 * <code><b>TRUE</b></code> or <code><b>NULL</b></code>, the result is <code><b>NULL</b></code>
 * (unknown).
 * <p>
 * The following table shows how the <code><b>AND</b></code> operator is evaluated based on its two
 * operands:
 *
 * <table summary="" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" border="1" width="250" style="border:1px outset darkgrey;">
 * <tr><td>            </td><td><b>TRUE</b></td><td><b>FALSE</b></td><td><b>NULL</b></td></tr>
 * <tr><td><b>TRUE</b> </td><td>   TRUE    </td><td>   FALSE    </td><td>   NULL    </td></tr>
 * <tr><td><b>FALSE</b></td><td>   FALSE   </td><td>   FALSE    </td><td>   FALSE   </td></tr>
 * <tr><td><b>NULL</b> </td><td>   NULL    </td><td>   FALSE    </td><td>   NULL    </td></tr>
