SUM SUM Sum Function

Usage

Computes the summation of an array along a given dimension.  The general
syntax for its use is

  y = sum(x,d)

where x is an n-dimensions array of numerical type.
The output is of the same numerical type as the input.  The argument
d is optional, and denotes the dimension along which to take
the summation.  The output y is the same size as x, except
that it is singular along the summation direction.  So, for example,
if x is a 3 x 3 x 4 array, and we compute the summation along
dimension d=2, then the output is of size 3 x 1 x 4.
