Cursor Methods: Limit

Limiting the number of documents returned in a collection in the database in MerlinDB.

🪶 The .limit method is used to restrict the number of documents returned in a query.

Setting cursor.limit( { name: 1 } ) causes the fields to be sorted in ascending order by name, if using -1 sorts in descending order.

If used with the cursor.skip() method, it limits the documents from the skip.
