Snippets
This weeks i checked the top topics on the subreddit r/PowerShell and found some interestig issues which where discussed there.
The „-not“ conditional argument
There was a question about the difference between „-not $MyVariable“ vs „($null -eq $MyVariable)“. There is a differnece, please read it here.
PS Module for Currency Conversion
Get your API Key from „Exchangerate“ and leveragr the PS-Module, which is wrapped around the Exchangerate-API to convert some currencies. Mark Wragg did the work for you, so go for it on his Github repo.

Writing Classes in Powershell is a rare art, people continue to try again to deal with it. Read this conversation if classes and functions are similar and if people have found ways to use classes in a proper and useful way.
