In a previous tip we illustrated how -like can work on array. To iterate on that, check out how -like (in contrast to -contains) allows the use of wildcards to check for array elements:
PS> 'Peter', 'Mary', 'Martin' -contains 'Mary' True PS> 'Peter', 'Mary', 'Martin' -contains 'Ma*' False PS> 'Peter', 'Mary', 'Martin' -like 'Ma*' Mary Martin PS> @('Peter', 'Mary', 'Martin' -like 'Ma*').Count -gt 0 True
