LEARN THE CONCEPT

Understand it, then try it.

PowerShell pipelines pass objects from one command to the next. ForEach-Object runs a script block once per item, where $_ represents the current item. A string method transforms each topic into uppercase text. The -join operator combines the resulting strings into one heading line for a report.

Run each mission separately in PowerShell 7. These snippets only create in-memory values and print reports; they do not read or modify files, services, or system settings.

Track the values line by line. Predict the result before running this example in your own editor.
