-# $cond
-
-The `$cond` operator in Amazon DocumentDB is used to evaluate a conditional expression and return one of two possible result expressions.
-
-**Parameters**
-
-  * `if`: The boolean expression to evaluate.
-
-  * `then`: The expression to return if the `if` expression is true.
-
-  * `else`: The expression to return if the `if` expression is false.
-

-
-## Example (MongoDB Shell)
-
-The following example demonstrates the use of the `$cond` operator to return a value based on the age of a person.
-
-**Create sample documents**
-    
-    
-    db.people.insertMany([
-      { _id: 1, name: "John Doe", age: 35 },
-      { _id: 2, name: "Jane Doe", age: 25 },
-      { _id: 3, name: "Bob Smith", age: 65 }
-    ]);
-
-**Query example**
-    
-    
-    db.people.aggregate([
-      {
-        $project: {
-          name: 1,
-          ageGroup: {
-            $cond: {
-              if: { $lt: ["$age", 30] },
-              then: "young",
-              else: {
-                $cond: {
-                  if: { $lt: ["$age", 65] },
-                  then: "middle-aged",
-                  else: "elderly"
-                }
-              }
-            }
-          }
-        }
-      }
-    ])
-
-**Output**
-    
-    
-    [
-      { "_id" : 1, "name" : "John Doe", "ageGroup" : "middle-aged" },
-      { "_id" : 2, "name" : "Jane Doe", "ageGroup" : "young" },
-      { "_id" : 3, "name" : "Bob Smith", "ageGroup" : "elderly" }
-    ]
