mongodb limit and skip method

In MongoDB, you can use the limit() and skip() methods to control the number of documents returned in a query result.

The limit() method is used to limit the number of documents returned in the query result. For example, to limit the result to the first 10 documents in a collection named "mycollection", you can use the following query:

db.mycollection.find().limit(10)

The skip() method is used to skip a certain number of documents in the query result. For example, to skip the first 5 documents and return the next 10 documents in a collection named "mycollection", you can use the following query:

db.mycollection.find().skip(5).limit(10)

In this example, the skip(5) method is used to skip the first 5 documents, and the limit(10) method is used to limit the result to the next 10 documents.

Note that the skip() and limit() methods can be used together to skip a certain number of documents and limit the result to a certain number of documents. For example, to skip the first 5 documents and return the next 10 documents in a collection named "mycollection", you can use the following query:

db.mycollection.find().skip(5).limit(10)
