TYPO/N operator  Using wildcard special characters

Chapter 8: Verity Topics

WILDCARD operator

Selects documents that contain matches to a character string containing variables. The WILDCARD operator lets you define a search string with variables, which can be used to locate related word matches in documents. The example in “Sample topic outlines” shows how you might use the string “histor*” to search for words such as “history,” “historical,” and “historian.” Documents are not relevance-ranked unless the MANY modifier is used.
