/**
 * The AND logical operator chains multiple criteria together. A valid operand
 * of an AND operator must be one of: TRUE,
 * FALSE, and NULL. The AND operator has
 * a higher precedence than the OR operator.
 * 
 * NULL represents unknown. Therefore, if one operand is NULL
 * and the other operand is FALSE the result is FALSE,
 * because one FALSE operand is sufficient for a FALSE
 * result. If one operand is NULL and the other operand is either
 * TRUE or NULL, the result is NULL
 * (unknown).
 * 

 * The following table shows how the AND operator is evaluated based on its two
 * operands:
 *
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 *             TRUE FALSE NULL
TRUE    TRUE       FALSE       NULL    
FALSE    FALSE      FALSE       FALSE   
NULL    NULL       FALSE       NULL    
 *
 * BNF: conditional_term ::= conditional_term AND conditional_factor
