ForEach (method)

Loop through a collection (or a set of properties) and perform an operation (execute a block of statements) against each.

Syntax
 collection.ForEach(scriptblock_expression )
 collection.ForEach(scriptblock_expression , object[] arguments)
 collection.ForEach(type convertToType)
 collection.ForEach(string propertyName)
 collection.ForEach(string propertyName, object[] newValue)
 collection.ForEach(string methodName)
 collection.ForEach(string methodName, object[] arguments)
Key
 collection A collection of objects e.g. filenames, registry keys, servernames
 ScriptBlock  A block of script to run against each object. 

Available in PowerShell 4.0 and later, this method provides faster performance than a ForEach statement.

Examples

Find all the running notepad processes, convert to an @array and kill/stop them:

@(Get-Process –Name notepad).ForEach({ Stop-Process -InputObject $_; })

Loop through a collection stored in a variable:

Get a set of services with names starting R:

$services = Get-Service r*

Display the names and status of each service in the collection:

$services.foreach({"$($_.Name)--$($_.status)"})

As we are passing a single script block argument this can be simplified to:

$services.foreach{"$($_.Name)--$($_.status)"}
