how to remove selected Apppools in IIS with powershell

Question

I am using the following comment to remove a single web application pool:

Remove-WebAppPool Apppool1

But I want to remove multiple selected Apppools. I have tried the following, but it does not work:

Remove-WebAppPool Apppool1,Apppool2

You could try to use the below Powershell script:

#Set New line using OFS special Powershell variable
$OFS = "`n"
#Externally set input value as string
[string[]] $_ServerList= @()
#Get the input from the user
$_ServerList = READ-HOST "Enter List of Servers"
#splitting the list of input as array by Comma & Empty Space

$_ServerList = $_ServerList.Split(',').Split(' ')


ForEach ($ApplicationPool in $_ServerList)
{
Remove-WebAppPool $ApplicationPool
}
