Check out Video #5 of Power BI Series and learn about DAX Measures and Slicers in Power BI Desktop.

This video covers:

• How to create a Measure
• Intro to Quick Measures and standard calculations
• Intro to Slicers and Edit Interactions

If you are start learning DAX I’ll recommend you:

• Book: Power Pivot and Power BI by Rob Collin & Avi Singh, ISBN-10:1615470395. This was one of the first books I read about DAX.
• Blog: DAX Fridays by Curbal.com . Ruth releases a video every Friday covering DAX functions (and more) and to date, the playlist counts with more than 80 videos. Awesome work indeed.

There are plenty of other sources (books, blogs, videos, etc), but these are my recommendations if you are new to DAX and Power BI and want to learn the basics.
