Read from task prompt or Section 1.A:
Break down the code:
## Code Understanding: [Measure Name]
### What It Calculates
[Plain English explanation of the calculation]
**In simple terms:** [One-sentence summary for executives]
### Technical Breakdown
```dax
[Code with inline comments]
| Component | Technical | Business Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Base Data | SUM('Sales'[Amount]) | Total invoice amounts |
| Filter | STATUS = 'POSTED' | Only completed sales |
| Time Context | SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR | Same period last year |
High values indicate: [What high values mean] Low values indicate: [What low values mean] Typical range: [Expected values]
## Example Output
```markdown
## Code Understanding: YoY Revenue Growth %
### What It Calculates
This measure calculates how much revenue has grown (or declined) compared to the same period last year, expressed as a percentage.
**In simple terms:** "Are we selling more than we did last year?"
### Technical Breakdown
```dax
YoY Growth % =
VAR CurrentRevenue = [Total Revenue] -- This year's sales
VAR PriorRevenue = CALCULATE(
[Total Revenue],
SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]) -- Same dates, but last year
)
RETURN DIVIDE(
CurrentRevenue - PriorRevenue, -- The difference
PriorRevenue -- As % of last year
)
+25% means: Revenue is 25% higher than the same period last year -10% means: Revenue declined 10% compared to last year 0% means: Revenue is unchanged from last year
