Aggregates / sum

sum(dataset, column OR number, number...)

Calculates the sum of the values in the given column of the given dataset, or the sum for a series of numbers specified as arguments. When looking up the sum in a dataset, the column may be specified as an index or as a column name. Any null values in the column are ignored. If there are no rows in the dataset, zero is returned.

 

For example, suppose you had a table with this dataset in it:

ProductCode

3.243

BAN_010

120

9.928

APL_000

1.287

FWL_220

sum({Root Container.Table.data}, 1)

... would return 947

 

sum(1,2,3)

... would return 6
