Mongo Triple Compound Index
问题 If you have a double compound index { a : 1, b : 1}, it makes sense to me that the index won't be used if you query on b alone (i.e. you cannot "skip" a in your query). The index will however be used if you query on a alone. However, given a triple compound index { a : 1, b: 1, c: 1} my explain command is showing that the index is used when you query on a and c (i.e. you can "skip" b in your query). How can Mongo use an abc index on a query for ac , and how effective is the index in this case
