Background
This past weekend I was looking at someone’s code, but as per normal, it was way over my head.
I thus googled on some keywords, and thankfully found other sample scripts.
- The sample codes were a bit more verbose and I was able to follow them a bit more.
Clean up The Code
Was able to clean up the code.
By clean up, I mean I reformatted the code a bit.
Critique
There are some areas that will make the code easier to read through.
- Some of the lines were a bit long
- PowerShell is very verbose and easy to read, yet I think that line level comments, could still be useful to speed up quick read through
Give Back
It is time to see if the original coder, will appreciate feedback.
But No.

Account
Thankfully, Bro, has a GitHub account.
He has a similar repository on GitHub for the same sample code.
But, the GitHub version is a bit more advanced than the one he shared on the blog.
Share Code
Outline
So here is what I did:-
- Repository
- Created a private repository
- File
- Created a place holder file on the repository
- Pasted the revised file unto the newly created file
- Saved the file
- Sent a contributor request

Summary
Journey of a software engineer.
Look to understand something.
Took to the .Net and Googled on it.
Found a code base that is easy to read.
Worked it a bit.
Some of the changes were actually merited.
Let us go back and tell him about it.
But, here I am completely ghosted.
Dedication
Always in dedication to the great ones.
