public final class WeakAndItem extends NonReducibleCompositeItem
Weak And of a collection of sub-expressions: this behaves like an OR unless many hits are returned and then it starts acting more like an AND. Alternately it can be viewed as an n-of-m operator where n is 1 at first and then increases gradually to m as more hits are seen.
