Topics include an beginner's introduction, MDX expressions and queries, real-world examples of MDX in use, how MDX is evaluated in context, leveraging MDX in cube design, and how all of Microsoft's computation techniques (calculations and rollups) interact, along with programming examples and a detailed, illustrated reference to all functions and MDX-related settings.
