An useful example is to use it as `AND` filters when combined with where:
## AND filter in where query
```
{{ $pages := where .Site.RegularPages "Type" "not in" (slice "page" "about") }}
{{ $pages := $pages | union (where .Site.RegularPages "Params.pinned" true) }}
{{ $pages := $pages | intersect (where .Site.RegularPages "Params.images" "!=" nil) }}
```
The above fetches regular pages not of `page` or `about` type unless they are pinned. And finally, we exclude all pages with no `images` set in Page params.
See [union](/functions/union) for `OR`.
