sum¶

paddle. sum ( x, axis=None, dtype=None, keepdim=False, name=None ) [source]

Computes the sum of tensor elements over the given dimension.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – An N-D Tensor, the data type is bool, float16, float32, float64, int32 or int64.
axis (int|list|tuple, optional) – The dimensions along which the sum is performed. If None, sum all elements of x and return a Tensor with a single element, otherwise must be in the range \([-rank(x), rank(x))\). If \(axis[i] < 0\), the dimension to reduce is \(rank + axis[i]\).
dtype (str, optional) – The dtype of output Tensor. The default value is None, the dtype of output is the same as input Tensor x.
keepdim (bool, optional) – Whether to reserve the reduced dimension in the output Tensor. The result Tensor will have one fewer dimension than the x unless keepdim is true, default value is False.
name (str, optional) – Name for the operation (optional, default is None). For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

Results of summation operation on the specified axis of input Tensor x, if x.dtype=’bool’, x.dtype=’int32’, it’s data type is ‘int64’, otherwise it’s data type is the same as x.

Return type

Tensor
