$StartDate = Get-Date
$EndDate = [datetime]"10/31/2018"
New-TimeSpan -Start $StartDate -End $EndDate
Thus, we can see that it's over 192 days until the next Halloween.

Calculate the Difference Between Dates with PowerShell
With PowerShell, it's easy to calculate the difference between dates:
$StartDate = Get-Date
$EndDate = [datetime]"10/31/2018"
New-TimeSpan -Start $StartDate -End $EndDate
Thus, we can see that it's over 192 days until the next Halloween.
$StartDate = Get-Date
$EndDate = [datetime]"10/31/2018"
New-TimeSpan -Start $StartDate -End $EndDate
Thus, we can see that it's over 192 days until the next Halloween.

Find the Day of the Year
The easiest way to use PowerShell to get the date is--surprise!--Get-Date:
Get-Date
But that output is not a string of text. It's an object, with properties that can be searched for, extracted, and manipulated. For example, how many days into the year are we on today's date?
(Get-Date).DayOfYear
My how the days fly by.
