Answer 1

Keith correctly mentions PowerShell equivalents to some LINQ extension methods. Note that you can call most extension methods from PowerShell, you just can't invoke them like they are members.

Extension methods are really just static methods with some extra rules in C# to allow them to be called like members.

PowerShell doesn't implement any of those rules, but that doesn't stop you from calling them as static methods, e.g.

[System.Linq.Enumerable]::Average([int[]](1..10))
