Loading .Net Assemblys into Powershell

I have some functionality written in C# that I want to use in PowerShell. I compiled the code I wanted into a dll and copied it to my target system. Then I used this snip of code to load and use it:

[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom(".\myProject.dll")
$myObject = New-Object myNamespace.myClass
$myObject.MyFunction()

If my functions return objects, I can use them just like I would any other object in PowerShell. I just found this as another way to use the .Net Framework.
