String Formatting
| Type | Example | Output | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Formatting Switch | 'select {0} from sys.tables' -f 'name' | select name from sys.tables | Same concept as .NET [string]::Format(). Token based replacement |
| .NET String Format | [string]::Format('select {0} from sys.tables','name') | select name from sys.tables | Why would you do this? Because you want to showoff your .NET chops? |
