# init(leftExpressions:rightExpressions:modifier:operators:options:)

Initializes and returns a “pop-up-pop-up-pop-up”–style row template.

```
init(leftExpressions: [NSExpression], rightExpressions: [NSExpression], modifier: NSComparisonPredicate.Modifier, operators: [NSNumber], options: Int)
```

## Parameters

`leftExpressions`

An array of <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSExpression> objects that represent the left side of a predicate.

`rightExpressions`

An array of <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSExpression> objects that represent the right side of a predicate.

`modifier`

A modifier for the predicate (see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSComparisonPredicate/Modifier> for possible values).

`operators`

An array of <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSNumber> objects specifying the operator type (see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSComparisonPredicate/Operator> for possible values).

`options`

Options for the predicate (see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSComparisonPredicate/Options-swift.struct> for possible values).

## Return Value

A row template of the “pop-up-pop-up-pop-up” form, with the left and right pop-ups representing the left and right expression arrays `leftExpressions` and `rightExpressions`, and the center pop-up representing the operators.
