sum(group,value)
This computes the arithmetic Number sum of every value in a group. See sum_if() for a related conditional operator.
group describes the notes to be examined and may be any group designator including a find() query.
value can be any expression, but is typically an attribute value.
For example,
sum(children,$WordCount)
constructs the current word count of the children of the note.
