Example Script

A simple example:

                ```powershell
                # Get the current timestamp
                $timestamp = Get-Date
                Write-Host "Current Timestamp: $timestamp"

                # Create a virtual machine
                $vm = New-AzVM -Location "East US" -Name "MyVM" -Size 20 -Image "Ubuntu-2204-LTS"

                # Give the VM a name
                $vm.Name = "MyVM"

                #  Check if the VM is running
                if ($vm -eq $null) {
                    Write-Host "The VM is not running. Check the status"
                    exit
                }

                Write-Host "VM Status: $vm"
                ```
