        Applies function along axis (or axes) of the Panel

        Parameters
        ----------
        func : function
            Function to apply to each combination of 'other' axes
            e.g. if axis = 'items', the combination of major_axis/minor_axis
            will each be passed as a Series; if axis = ('items', 'major'),
            DataFrames of items & major axis will be passed
        axis : {'items', 'minor', 'major'}, or {0, 1, 2}, or a tuple with two
            axes
        Additional keyword arguments will be passed as keywords to the function

        Examples
        --------

        Returns a Panel with the square root of each element

        >>> p = pd.Panel(np.random.rand(4,3,2))
        >>> p.apply(np.sqrt)

        Equivalent to p.sum(1), returning a DataFrame

        >>> p.apply(lambda x: x.sum(), axis=1)

        Equivalent to previous:

        >>> p.apply(lambda x: x.sum(), axis='minor')

        Return the shapes of each DataFrame over axis 2 (i.e the shapes of
        items x major), as a Series

        >>> p.apply(lambda x: x.shape, axis=(0,1))

        Returns
