I am writing this example in the context of adding a column to a table so you can ignore the part like Table.AddColumn("column_name", each and just focus on the parts try ... otherwise ....
Table.AddColumn("revenue", each try [price] * [quantity] otherwise 0, type number)
or
Table.AddColumn("name", each try [first_name] + " " + [last_name] otherwise "", type text)
