Challenge
Use the CALCULATE Function
In this first challenge, you’ll set up a Power BI data model for learning and explore how to use the CALCULATE function in DAX. You’ll work with a sample dataset in Power BI Desktop and create a few measures that use CALCULATE.

Challenge
Use the ALL and REMOVEFILTERS Functions
From time to time, you may need to ignore some filters in DAX. To do this, you can use several functions—ALL and REMOVEFILTERS among them. In this challenge, you’ll see these two functions in action.

Challenge
Use the FILTER and VALUES Functions
In some cases, you may not want to ignore existing filters—instead, you may simply want to add new ones. In those situations, the FILTER function can be useful. You might also want to reapply filters that were previously ignored, and for that, you can use the VALUES function. In this challenge, you’ll explore how these functions behave in different scenarios and how they can help you control filter context in your calculations.
