type handling error in PowershellLab demo

[lc9er]

Stumbled across this on Twitter. In playing around with it, there's some incorrect behavior around types.

Example:

> $mynum = 5
> $mynum * 10
5
5
5
5
5
5
5
5
5
5

if a type is specified, it works as expected:

> [int]$mynum = 5
> $mynum * 10
50

@lc9er it's more a preview to show I'm working on it :) But very thank you for your interest.

Yes, at the moment, I need to make a PowerShell Host for XtermJS, under the hood, I make an Out-String so : $i = 5 is converted to $i = 5 | Out-String, it's why it's buggy.

$mynum = 5 ;""
$mynum * 10

Ok. Understood! Thanks for your response. I’m looking forward to future development.
