Inhaltsangabe

Written by a Microsoft MVP, this book teaches you the practical skills to take the most of DAX from whatever angle you'd like to approach it. It's written for data analysts using Power BI or Power Pivot, BI developers targeting Analysis Services Tabular, and in general anyone who's interested in DAX. You’ll learn DAX methodically with self-paced lessons that build upon your previous knowledge to introduce progressively more challenging concepts. Each lesson starts with providing the necessary theoretical background, followed by step-by-step exercises. Most lessons are five to six pages long, and it should take you no more than 15 minutes to complete the practices. Do one lesson per day and become a DAX expert in a month!
