Name

Maximum distance between the words
List of terms and subqueries

Comments

ORDERED_NEAR combines the features of NEAR and PHRASE. It is like a PHRASE in that each term or subquery must occur in the order they are listed. It differs in that they need not be adjacent. They must, however, be within the specified number of words.

Note that while we say, "within n words," what counts as a word is specified by the indexing process. Each call to prIndexWord increments the word count.

Example

ORDERED_NEAR( 3 'blue', 'green' );
