When you're working with Power Query's M code, you might notice that when you start typing a function, a small pop-up (called IntelliSense) appears, showing you how to use that function. This pop-up shows a "function signature," which is like a quick instruction manual for the function.

List.Transform(list as list, transform as function) as list

Part 1 of the code:
list as list: This means the first thing you need is a list (a collection of items like numbers or text).

Part 3 of the code:
This visually connects the idea that you're taking a list, applying a
rule, and getting a new list as a result.
