🤔 THE QUESTION

How do we combine multiple filtering conditions where all criteria must be satisfied simultaneously?

💡 WHAT IS IT?

Using the bitwise & operator between parenthesized boolean column expressions to enforce logical AND.

🎯 WHAT IS IT USED FOR?

Departmental salary audits, targeted customer segmentation, and compliance verification.

💻 EXAMPLE
from pyspark.sql.functions import col

df.filter(
    (col("department") == "Engineering") &
    (col("salary") > 90000)
).show()

🎯 Mission Objectives

Practice typing production-grade PySpark code for Logical AND Filter Combinations.

  • Combine conditions with & operator
  • Wrap each condition in parentheses
  • Filter engineering high-earners
