Some inconsistencies with the Dask version may exist.

Parameters
axis{index (0), columns (1)}

Axis for the function to be applied on. For Series this parameter is unused and defaults to 0.

skipnabool, default True (Not supported in Dask)

Exclude NA/null values when computing the result.

levelint or level name, default None (Not supported in Dask)

If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a Series.

Deprecated since version 1.3.0: The level keyword is deprecated. Use groupby instead.

numeric_onlybool, default None (Not supported in Dask)

Include only float, int, boolean columns. If None, will attempt to use everything, then use only numeric data. Not implemented for Series.

Deprecated since version 1.5.0: Specifying numeric_only=None is deprecated. The default value will be False in a future version of pandas.

**kwargs

Additional keyword arguments to be passed to the function.

Returns
Series or DataFrame (if level specified)
