Calling a function with arguments or parameter in Powershell?

**ArunJ** · 18-02-2009

Hi,

I don't understand the difference between the parameter & arguments in the powershell while calling a function?

Can you guys please help me understanding the basic difference & the advantages or disadvantages?

Well I don't think there is much difference between the two methods of calling a function! But its your personal liking about your style!

You can call function both ways!

Hope this helps!

PowerShell is a bit funky.. When you create a function and you want to supply parameters, the following format applies:

function fname {

param([string]$a, [int]$b) # the two parameters.

write-host ("a = " + $a)

write-host ("b = " + $b)

}
