Excel Calculation versus Power Query

[Anonymous]

Dear Friends,

I am new to Power Bi and Power Query. I would like to know if I can perform calculations in Power Query/ Power Bi in the same manner in Excel.

Thank you in advance.

Hello, @Anonymous yes, you can do many calculations using DAX (Power BI) or M (Power Query) functions but not like you do that in Excel. E.g. you can't select a "cell" in table and write "= 2 + 2" in it.

Hi @AlienSx , Thank you so much. I was searching all around the web but couldn't find the answer that I was looking for. This clarifies my question. 🙂
