hard📝 Application Q8 of 15

PowerShell - Operators

A4..12 | Where-Object { $_ % 2 -eq 0 }

B4..12 | Where-Object { $_ % 2 -ne 0 }

C2..6 | ForEach-Object { $_ * 2 }

D4..12 | ForEach-Object { $_ + 2 }

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Generate the full range
4..12 creates numbers from 4 to 12 inclusive.
Step 2: Filter even numbers
Using Where-Object { $_ % 2 -eq 0 } filters only even numbers.
Step 3: Evaluate options
4..12 | Where-Object { $_ % 2 -eq 0 } correctly filters evens. 4..12 | Where-Object { $_ % 2 -ne 0 } filters odds. 2..6 | ForEach-Object { $_ * 2 } generates 2 to 6 and multiplies by 2, which also produces evens but from 4 to 12 indirectly. 4..12 | ForEach-Object { $_ + 2 } adds 2 to each number, not filtering evens.
Final Answer:
4..12 | Where-Object { $_ % 2 -eq 0 } -> Option A
Quick Check:
Check if filtering condition matches even numbers [OK]

Quick Trick: Filter evens with Where-Object { $_ % 2 -eq 0 } [OK]
