In summary, "Searching for whole sentence" is the process of using a search engine or text processing tool to find a specific sequence of words within a larger text or document. It is important in scientific research as it saves time and effort. However, common challenges such as variations in sentence structure and wording can make it difficult. To improve accuracy, advanced search operators and carefully constructed queries can be used. There are limitations such as the inability to process certain file types or the possibility of the desired sentence being located in an image or audio file. The quality and organization of the text being searched can also affect the accuracy of the results.
