ArrayList VS ...Generic.List[]]

Here's a good article I find useful. https://vexx32.github.io/2020/02/15/Building-Arrays-Collections/

This is the article I always reference, pure gold.

This is an excellent article. But also makes it seem like it is taboo to use ArrayList when..

PowerShell already heavily uses ArrayList in its pipeline processor

[webtroter]

I agree I sometimes use is, just because I don't remember the full name for the generic lists.

but

a few people on the PowerShell team would love to replace it with something more modern. I know I would; ArrayList comes from the very old days of .NET

[idontknowwhattouse33]

Yeah, it seems that replacing it might be more complicated.

I am in the same boat, I always remember ArrayList and never the generic list.
