Loops and Constructs
As illustrated in the following table, there's nearly a one-to-one correspondence between VBScript and PowerShell constructs:
| In VBScript… | In PowerShell… |
|---|---|
| Exit Do, Exit For | Break |
| For…Next | For |
| For Each…Next | Foreach |
| Function | Function |
| Sub | (no equivalent; use Function) |
| If…Then | If |
| If…ElseIf…Else | If, ElseIf, and Else |
| Select…Case | Switch |
| Do…Loop Until, Do Until…Loop | Do…until, Do until |
| Do…Loop While, Do While…Loop | Do…While, While |
Refer to Chapter 8 to review the discussion of these loops and constructs.
