+
+        Parameters
+        ----------
+        axis : {index (0), columns (1)}
+            Axis for the function to be applied on.
+            For `Series` this parameter is unused and defaults to 0.
+
+            For DataFrames, specifying ``axis=None`` will apply the aggregation
+            across both axes.

+        skipna : bool, default True

+
+        **kwargs
+            Additional keyword arguments to be passed to the function.
+
+        Returns
