The other day, a student who had recently started taking the "Developing Power Query" course approached me with a question.

After taking just a few basic lessons, Mikhail wanted to immediately apply the knowledge he had gained in real practice, and he solved his work problem without having a more or less sufficient set of Power Query tools. Mikhail asked me to evaluate his solution for correctness and optimality.

In this video, with Mikhail's permission, I will demonstrate and explain:
his solution
a more optimal solution
I will briefly tell you about the existence of the most optimal solution
