markwragg / get-cmdletstats.ps1

Last active January 17, 2017 11:34

Powershell command to see the max min and average length of cmdlets. Decided to do this after seeing how crazy long Get-WinAcceptLanguageFromLanguageListOptOut is as a cmdlet and wondering if it was the longest. Also used this to experiment with calculated properties and discovered you can use them in sort and select as well as where.

	#Get stats on length of the cmdlet name such as max, min, average, sum
	Get-Command \| where CommandType -eq cmdlet \| select -ExpandProperty name \| measure length -Average -Sum -Max -Min

	# See the list, sorted by length
	Get-Command \| where CommandType -eq cmdlet \| select -ExpandProperty name \| sort length

	#Another way to get this statistic using calculated properties
	Get-Command \| where CommandType -eq cmdlet \| select name,@{N='length';E={$_.name.length}} \| measure length -Average -Sum -Max -Min

	# See the list this way, sorted by length (we can skip the select and use the expression in sort)
