Pandas Series sum () Function
The sum () function in Pandas is used to calculate the sum of all elements in the Series . It is a convenient function to quickly obtain the total of all
Return the sum of the values. Parameters axis: {index (0), columns (1)} Axis for the function to be applied on. skipna: bool, default True Exclude NA/null values when computing the result. Changed in version 3.4.0: Added skipna to exclude.

Include only float, int, boolean columns. False is not supported. This parameter is mainly for pandas compatibility. min_countint, default 0 The required number of valid values to perform the operation. If fewer than min_count non-NA values are present the result will be NA. Returns sumscalar for a Series , and a Series for a DataFrame. Examples >>>
the current implementation of cumsum uses Spark's Window without specifying partition specification. This leads to moving all data into a single partition in a single machine and could cause serious performance degradation.

pandas . Series . sum # Series . sum (*, axis=None, skipna=True, numeric_only=False, min_count=0, **kwargs) [source] # Return the sum of the values over the requested axis. This is equivalent to the method numpy. sum . Parameters: axis{index (0)} Axis for the function to be applied on. For Series this parameter is unused and defaults to 0.

Sum Calculations
A Pandas Series is a one-dimensional array-like object that can hold data of any type. The sum () method is the primary tool for calculating the total of a Series .
Built-in python's sum function is working for some folks but giving error for others. So, the addition of multiple columns can be achieved using the expr function in PySpark, which takes an expression to be computed as an input.
Mastering pandas.Series.sum ()
The sum () method is a quick and easy way to calculate the sum of values in a pandas Series . It ignores missing values (like NaN) by default, which is usually what you want.
