CONTATENATEX Formula

Hello, im having difficulties understanding the CONTATENATEX formula. I am a complete beginner in this code writing world but i need the formula to conjoin two columns into one for my studies project.

My task is to conjoin columns "Year" and "Month number" into a new column that would join those together showing a year and month together, respectively 202101, 202102 etc. Im just confused about where in the code should i put the formula and what to write in it. Any help will be appreciated! (Look at the picture below for the table and code)

        "Month", FORMAT ( [Date], "mmmm" ),
        "Month Number", MONTH ( [Date] ),
        " Year Month Number",
            YEAR ( [Date] ) * 100
                + MONTH ( [Date] )
    )

    Hi stefans124 
    Just add anew line inside ADDCOLUMNS
    " Year Month Number", YEAR ( [Date] ) * 100 + MONTH ( [Date] )
