Data Modeling and Relationships  Flashcards

Microsoft Power BI Data Analyst Flashcards

How does context affect DAX calculations
What is a calculated column in DAX
Data Analysis Expressions, a formula language for creating calculations and measures in data models
What does the CALCULATE function in DAX achieve
What is a lookup table in data modeling
Filters and relationships in your data model determine which data is included in DAX calculations
A table used to store reference data to simplify the relationships in a model
What is DAX
A column with values computed using a formula for each row in a table
What is the purpose of relationships in data models
Modifies filter context for calculations
To connect tables so you can analyze data across multiple tables

How does context affect DAX calculationsFilters and relationships in your data model determine which data is included in DAX calculations
How does DAX improve data analysisBy allowing complex calculations, aggregations, and custom measures to be created
What are the four main types of relationships in data modelingOne-to-One, One-to-Many, Many-to-One, Many-to-Many
What does "Many-to-Many" relationships allowData in both tables to relate to multiple rows in the other table
What does cardinality in relationships specifyThe number of elements in one table that relate to elements in another table
What does the CALCULATE function in DAX achieveModifies filter context for calculations
What does the DISTINCT function in DAX returnA unique list of values from a column or table
What does the RELATED function in DAX doRetrieves a value from a related table based on the model relationships
What does the term "referential integrity" meanEnsuring that relationships between tables remain consistent
What is a calculated column in DAXA column with values computed using a formula for each row in a table
What is a data modelA structured framework for organizing and relating data to support analysis and reporting
What is a foreign keyA field in one table that links to the primary key in another table
What is a lookup table in data modelingA table used to store reference data to simplify the relationships in a model
What is a measure in DAXA calculation used to summarize or analyze data in your data model
What is a primary keyA unique identifier for each record in a table
What is DAXData Analysis Expressions, a formula language for creating calculations and measures in data models
What is the difference between implicit and explicit measures in DAXImplicit measures are automatically created; explicit measures are user-defined
What is the purpose of relationships in data modelsTo connect tables so you can analyze data across multiple tables
When should you use a One-to-Many relationshipWhen one record in one table is associated with multiple records in another table
When should you use measures instead of calculated columnsWhen dealing with aggregations or values that depend on filters
