#Get stats on length of the cmdlet name such as max, min, average, sum
Get-Command | where CommandType -eq cmdlet | select -ExpandProperty name | measure length -Average -Sum -Max -Min

# See the list, sorted by length
Get-Command | where CommandType -eq cmdlet | select -ExpandProperty name | sort length

#Another way to get this statistic using calculated properties
Get-Command | where CommandType -eq cmdlet | select name,@{N='length';E={$_.name.length}} | measure length -Average -Sum -Max -Min

# See the list this way, sorted by length (we can skip the select and use the expression in sort)
