Series.mean(*, axis=0, skipna=True, numeric_only=False, **kwargs)

Return the mean of the values over the requested axis.

Parameters:

For DataFrames, specifying axis=None will apply the aggregation across both axes.

Added in version 2.0.0.

skipnabool, default True

Exclude NA/null values when computing the result.

numeric_onlybool, default False
