for example:

$animal = "cat"

my want output of $animal "cat" semicolon. can do?

i tried parsing semicolon output using ' have spaces around it. illustration if

write-host '"'$animal'"'

output " cat " space around it. wanted "cat"

thanks

try enclose in single quote:

$animal = '"cat"'

or if want utilize write-host escape double quotes `

$animal = "cat" write-host "`"$animal`""
