Ranged letters
While I was playing around with the range operator I thought of this
| 001
002
003
004
005
| $start = [byte][char]"a"
$finish = [byte][char]"h"
$start..$finish |
foreach {New-Item -Path c:\test -Name "file$([char]$_).txt" -ItemType File} |
Define your start and finish letters. Convert each to a char and then a byte. This gives us the numeric value of the letter (ascii code).
We can then use those values in the range operator and create the files as we have already seen.
