As I was creating the next post in my ArcaneBooks series, I realized I had not written about the
StringBuilderclass. As the code in my ArcaneBooks module relies on it in several places, I thought it best to add a new post to my Fun With PowerShell series explaining how to use it before continuing.It’s a common need in any language, and PowerShell is no exception, to need to add more text to an existing string.
