I'm excited to announce that the latest set of Excel functions are generally available. 🎉 They simplify common text manipulation tasks and unlock dynamic array scenarios.
TEXTBEFORE/AFTER, TEXTSPLIT, EXPAND, TAKE, DROP, V/HSTACK, CHOOSEROWS/COLS, TOROW/COL and WRAPROWS/COLS.
New DAX function in #PowerBI: EvaluateAndLog. This will be incredibly useful for debugging! See the great Jeffrey Wang’s blog for details: https://t.co/w43vB6Lf16
Have you ever tried the Cluster values feature in #PowerQuery? Cluster values automatically create groups with similar values using a fuzzy matching algorithm, and then maps each column's value to the best-matched group #TransformTuesday https://t.co/8ugaMdC4oT
Just updated "Literal Attributes" in Power Query M Primer (part 21) - Identifier Scope & Sections.
Now features a slightly more commonplace use case for literal attributes.
