Can someone tell me what is the difference between typing for example A* and A** in search engine? When we use just * and when **?

Using * makes it exact, using ** allows it to expand its search a bit more.

I get the same results that what confuses me. What do you mean with expand search? I don't understand this with **

Well if you got the same results that means there are no other results, I don't understand why it really matters :[

I maybe have that on test to demonstrate the difference between those two searches and just want to clear out

There might not even be a difference

I remember that A* list all the files no matter their extensions but A** list.........
