# At-least quantifier

Learn how to check that at least a certain number of items satisfy a condition.

This quantifier checks whether at least a given number of elements in a collection satisfies a given condition.

## Syntax

This quantifier has the following syntax:

```cql
at least /*<number>*/ of any /*<item>*/ in /*<collection>*/ satisfies /*<condition>*/
```

Either *satisfy* or *satisfies* can be used interchangeably:

```cql
at least /*<number>*/ of any /*<item>*/ in /*<collection>*/ satisfy /*<condition>*/
```

You can specify whether you want to consider only distinct elements:

```cql
at least /*<number>*/ of any distinct /*<item>*/ in /*<collection>*/ satisfies /*<condition>*/
```

You can also specify a name to refer to the index of the element in the collection:

```cql
at least /*<number>*/ of any /*<item>*/ in /*<collection>*/ indexed by /*<index>*/ satisfies /*<condition>*/
```

You must replace the `/*<item>*/` and `/*<index>*/` placeholders with a [valid identifier](/reference/cql/syntax#identifiers). These variables will refer to the element and its index in the collection, as exemplified in the following section.

## Examples

Here is an example that checks if at least two numbers in a collection are even:

```cql
at least 2 of any number in [2, 4, 6] satisfies number mod 2 is 0 // true
```

The following example checks whether the user added at least two Apple products after adding the first item to the cart:

```cql
at least 2 of any item in cart indexed by index satisfies item's brand is "Apple" and index >= 1
```

Lastly, this example checks if a user has at least two distinct products of the category "Electronics" in their cart:

```cql
at least 2 of any distinct item in cart satisfies item's category is "Electronics"
```
