So,
With all the fun aside.

Can someone in laymans terms please explain to me MVD. Please include
examples.

I have looked on line and there are many examples but none have
"clicked".

I may be making this hard, actually I should say I know I am making
this hard but I would like to understand this. The class at this point
means nothing but I would really like to fully understand what a MVD is
and be able to identify one.

Thanks,
Chris
