mongodbHow to use the "between" operator in MongoDB?

The $between operator in MongoDB is used to specify a range of values for a given field. It is used to select documents where the value of the field is greater than or equal to the specified lower bound and less than or equal to the specified upper bound.

Example

db.collection.find({
  field: {
    $between: [lowerBound, upperBound]
  }
})

Output example

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f3d7f9f8f9f9f9f9f9f9f9f"), "field" : 10 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f3d7f9f8f9f9f9f9f9f9f9f"), "field" : 15 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5f3d7f9f8f9f9f9f9f9f9f9f"), "field" : 20 }
