Commonly-used type accelerators

Type accelerators, also referred to as type shortcuts, allow you to create an object of a specific .NET Framework type without having to enter the entire type name. This is a feature that is supported by both PowerShell and the Exchange Management Shell, and allows you to reduce the amount of typing required when creating an object or explicitly typing a variable. The following table lists some of the most commonly-used type shortcuts:
