    Examine not exact match search

    Hi

    How do you do a non-exact search using Examine?

    I currently have:

     if (ExamineManager.Instance.TryGetIndex("ExternalIndex", out var index))
                {
                    var searcher = index.GetSearcher();
                    var results = searcher.CreateQuery("content").ManagedQuery(q).And().GroupedOr(new[] { "__NodeTypeAlias" }, "home", "parentContentPage", "childContentPage").Execute().ToList();

 // not relevant
                }

    But it only returns exact matches, if I have a query 'technology assets' I would like to try and search for 'technology' and 'assets' then order by score.

    I have seen loads of examples, but none for V8 as: 

    var Searcher = ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection[examineSearcherName];

    now returns IExamineManager does not contain a definition....

    Any help would be appreciated

    Worked it out, below is how I did it in case anyone ever needs this

    string[] words = q.Split(' ');


                List<string> newQuery = new List<string>();

                foreach (var word in words)
                {
                    newQuery.Add(word);
                }

                var searcher = index.GetSearcher();
                var results = searcher.CreateQuery("content").GroupedOr(new[] { "nodeName","pageTitle","pageDescription"}, newQuery.ToArray()).Execute().ToList();
