How to construct a proper WHERE clause with RavenDb - ravendb

Question

I have experimented with 2 forms of the call, this one
products = DocumentSession.Query<Product>()
.Statistics(out stats)
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(term1))
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(term2))
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(term3))
.OrderByField(columnToSortBy, columnToSortByAsc)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize)
.ToList()
;
and this way
products = DocumentSession.Query<Product>()
.Statistics(out stats)
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(term1) & p.INFO2.StartsWith(term2) & p.INFO2.StartsWith(term3))
.OrderByField(columnToSortBy, columnToSortByAsc)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize)
.ToList()
;
The first one returns records that are more in-line with my expectations, while the seconds seems to return ALL documents of type Product. What are the differences between the 2 from a LINQ expression point of view, and have I overlooked anything that might negate what I am trying to accomplish, which is a 3 term query and each term being AND'd together.
EDIT: revised code per Russ.
string t1 = terms[0];
string t2 = terms[1];
string t3 = terms[2];
products = DocumentSession.Query<Product>()
.Statistics(out stats)
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(t1) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(t2) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(t3))
.OrderByField(columnToSortBy, columnToSortByAsc)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize)
.ToList()
;
EDIT 2: This is where you smash your face down on the keyboard, or any other solid object for that matter... Gotta get back to the basic here with standard C# And and Or
Thank you,

Answer 1

In the second block you're doing an & instead of an && so instead of being an AND comparison, it's trying to do a bitwise operation.
Edit: in the 2nd case, you can change this:
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[0]) & p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[1]) & p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[2]))
to this:
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[0]) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[1]) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[2]))
Which makes it proper AND clause.
2nd edit: If this is meant to be an AND operation, then you don't need 3 terms - you need a single term, otherwise you'll be comparing against 3 instances of the same string.
terms[0] = "test";
terms[1] = "test";
terms[2] = "test";
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[0]) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[1]) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(terms[2]))
Is the same as
string term = "test";
.Where(p => p.INFO2.StartsWith(term) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(term) && p.INFO2.StartsWith(term))
Just mentioning this as this may make your code harder to maintain in the future.
