- Whenever you run most PowerShell commands,…let's say get-service, you get text on the screen,…and I think you can probably agree that this is a table.…In fact if you kind of squint,…and don't look too hard it might even resemble…an Excel spreadsheet.…You've got a set of column headers.…Looks like we've got, one, two, three columns,…and then each column has got a piece of data in each row.…
Most of PowerShell will produce output like that.…If we run get-process, you get a table.…get-eventlog -logname application,…let's just get the newest 10,…and oh look it's a table.…We need to fix some terminology though.…It's all well and good to call this a table,…and it's fine to call the thing at the top a column header.…It's fine to think that this has columns…and that it has rows,…those just aren't the words PowerShell uses.…
You see when you run that command,…PowerShell actually gets a lot more data…than what shows up on the screen.…So it stores that information in memory temporarily…in a data structure called an object.…
