-# $project
-
-The `$project` operator in Amazon DocumentDB allows you to selectively include or exclude fields from output documents, pass values to the next pipeline stage, and compute new fields from input document values.
-
-**Parameters**
-
-  * `field`: The field to include or exclude from the output documents, it can be a field path (e.g., "a.b.c").
-
-  * `1` or `true`: Includes the field in the output.
-
-  * `0` or `false`: Excludes the field from the output.

-## Example (MongoDB Shell)
-
-The following example demonstrates the usage of the `$project` operator on students collection
-
-**Create sample documents**
-    
-    
-    db.students.insertMany([
-      { "_id": 1, "name": "Alejandro Rosalez", "math": 85, "science": 92, "grade": "A" },
-      { "_id": 2, "name": "Carlos Salazar", "math": 78, "science": 84, "grade": "B" },
-      { "_id": 3, "name": "Nikhil Jayashankar", "math": 95, "science": 89, "grade": "A" },
-      { "_id": 4, "name": "Shirley Rodriguez", "math": 72, "science": 76, "grade": "B" }
-      ]);
-    
-
-This query includes only the `name` and `math` fields in the output. The `_id` field is included by default unless explicitly excluded.
-    
-    
-    db.students.aggregate([
-      { $project: { "name": 1, "math": 1 } }
-    ])
-
-**Output**
-    
-    
-    { _id: 1, name: "Alejandro Rosalez", math: 85 }
-    { _id: 2, name: "Carlos Salazar", math: 78 }
-    { _id: 3, name: "Nikhil Jayashankar", math: 95 }
-    { _id: 4, name: "Shirley Rodriguez", math: 72 }
-
-This query excludes the `grade` and `_id` fields from the output, showing all other fields (`name`, `math`, `science`).
-    
-    
-    db.students.aggregate([
-      { $project: { "grade": 0, "_id": 0 } }
-    ])
-
-**Output**
-    
-    
-    { name: "Alejandro Rosalez", math: 85, science: 92 }
-    { name: "Carlos Salazar", math: 78, science: 84 }
-    { name: "Nikhil Jayashankar", math: 95, science: 89 }
-    { name: "Shirley Rodriguez", math: 72, science: 76 }
