.NOTES
The core of the code was taken from https://www.reddit.com/r/PowerShell/comments/8p09mb/how_to_loop_through_docker_ps_a_with_powershell/ so
credits go to reddit user /u/Lee_Dailey (https://www.reddit.com/user/Lee_Dailey/), a great contributor on the powershell subreddit [grin]
I've also (forcefully) learned the how's and why's of using advanced functions, and the massive value of the ISE (which i will never use again, heh)
Thank you fellow admin for reading this ramblings, and party on!
