2 min readTo escape a PowerShell reserved word, you can use a backtick () or double quotes (" ") around the word. This tells PowerShell to treat the word as a literal string and not as a reserved keyword.

This allows you to use reserved words in your PowerShell scripts without any issues.

For example, df.head(10) will return the first 10 rows of the dataframe. Use the tail() method to return the last n rows of the dataframe. For example, df.tail(5) will return the last 5 rows of the dataframe. Use slicing to select a specific range of rows. For example, df[5:10] will return rows 5 to 9 of the dataframe.

3 min readIn PowerShell, a 2D array can be created by defining an array of arrays. Each element in the array represents a row, and each row contains multiple columns of data. To create a 2D array, you can use the following syntax:$my2DArray = @( @(1, 2, 3), @(4, 5, 6), @(7, 8, 9) )This will create a 2D array with 3 rows and 3 columns.

6 min readTo grab specific JSON nested values in PowerShell, you can use the ConvertFrom-Json cmdlet to convert the JSON data into a PowerShell object. Once you have the JSON data as an object, you can access the nested values by using dot notation or by navigating through the object's properties and keys. You can also use the Select-Object cmdlet to filter and retrieve specific nested values from the JSON data.

5 min readTo create a custom array in PowerShell, you can simply initialize a variable with an array of elements. For example, you can create an array of numbers like this: $myArray = @(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) You can also create an array of strings or any other data type by simply enclosing the elements in parentheses and separating them with commas.Custom arrays allow you to store and manipulate groups of values easily in PowerShell.

3 min readTo get types from an F# assembly using PowerShell, you can use the Add-Type cmdlet to load the assembly into your session. Once the assembly is loaded, you can use the Get-ChildItem cmdlet to explore the types contained within the assembly. You can also use the Get-Member cmdlet to inspect the properties and methods of each type. Additionally, you can use the New-Object cmdlet to create instances of the types within the assembly and interact with them programmatically.

4 min readTo access single columns in pandas using a for loop, you can iterate over the column names and then use the column name to extract the column data. You can do this by first getting the list of column names using df.columns, and then iterating over each column name to access the column data using df[column_name].
