PowerShell Examples in my GitHub Repo

I just uploaded a few of my PowerShell samples to GitHub at https://github.com/Jose-Barreto/PowerShell. Many were mentioned in previous blog posts:

• PowerShell Examples: Calculating the value of Pi
• PowerShell Examples: Calculating Prime Numbers
• PowerShell Examples: Generating Random Names
• PowerShell Examples: Counting words in a text file
• PowerShell Examples – Random words and their popularity via Bing
• PowerShell Examples: Using Bing to measure the popularity of cmdlets in a specific PowerShell module
• Using PowerShell and Excel PivotTables to understand the files on your disk
• Splitting logs with PowerShell
• Using PowerShell to generate a large test CSV file with random data
• PowerShell script organizes pictures in your OneDrive camera roll folder
• PowerShell for finding the size of your local OneDrive folder
• PowerShell script to check my backup by comparing file hashes
• PowerShell Examples: Adventure House Game

But not every file in that GitHub repo is documented in a blog post. Some are just some small tests and samples:

• An anagram builder – Given a word, finds anagrams for it
• Finding numbers – Finds the smallest and largest numbers
• Your age – Does some date math to find the day of the week you were born
• Counting words – Reads words from a sample text and finds the most popular ones
• TCP List – Lists remote connections, including the process name and remote host
