Could you please explain in detail how one goes about calculating the fee for a Bitcoin transaction? I understand that the fee can vary depending on factors such as the size of the transaction and the current network congestion, but I'm not quite sure how to determine the exact amount. Is there a specific formula or tool that can be used to make this calculation? Additionally, how does the fee impact the speed of transaction confirmation and the overall security of the Bitcoin network?

The total fee paid by a transaction is calculated by multiplying the sats/vByte rate by the size of the transaction.
