You can group files with the same hash value to determine which files are duplicates. Additionally, you can use the Compare-Object cmdlet to compare file properties and ultimately identify duplicate files.

6 min readIn LINQ, you can conditionally apply a LINQ operator by using a combination of extension methods and lambda expressions. One common approach is to use the Where operator along with a conditional statement in the lambda expression. For example, you can filter a collection based on a specific condition using the Where operator. Another approach is to dynamically choose which LINQ operator to apply based on a condition, by using if-else or switch statements.

4 min readWhen querying data from Couchbase, you can use the ORDER BY clause in your N1QL query to get ordered results. By specifying a specific field in the ORDER BY clause, you can sort the results based on that field in either ascending or descending order. Additionally, you can also use the OFFSET and LIMIT clauses to further refine your results and paginate through the data if needed.

3 min readIn PowerShell, you can convert a relative path to an absolute path by using the Resolve-Path cmdlet. This cmdlet resolves the path specified as parameter to an absolute path and returns a System.String object representing the resolved path. For example, if you have a relative path like .\Documents\file.txt, you can convert it to an absolute path by running the command Resolve-Path .\Documents\file.txt. This will return the full path to the file.txt including the drive letter and root directory.

4 min readIn LINQ, you can index into a variable (such as an array or a collection) using the ElementAt method. This method allows you to specify the index of the element you want to access within the variable. For example, if you have a list of integers called numbers, you can access the element at index 2 by using numbers.ElementAt(2). This allows you to retrieve a specific element from a variable without having to iterate through the entire collection.

5 min readTo do a basic sort in DynamoDB, you need to define a sort key in your table schema. The sort key is used to sort items within a partition key. When querying the table, you can specify the sort key to order the results based on the values in that key. Sort keys can be either scalar or composite, allowing for more complex sorting criteria. To perform a basic sort in DynamoDB, you would simply query the table with the desired sort key and retrieve the results in the specified order.
