How To Use OR & AND Filters In SharePoint List

This blog will discuss the OR & AND filters in SharePoint and how we can use them simultaneously to get the required view.

Use case: I have a list of car details with multiple columns and records. Some fields in certain records are empty. I want to create a filtered view of the list that excludes any cars with an empty description.
