+  short_description: Produce a list of accumulated sums of the input list contents
+  version_added: 10.1.0
+  author: Max Gautier (@VannTen)
+  description:
+    - Passthrough to the L(Python itertools.accumulate function,https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.accumulate).
+    - Transforms an input list into the cumulative list of results from applying addition to the elements of the input list.
+    - Addition means the default Python implementation of C(+) for input list elements type.
+  options:
+    _input:
+      description: A list.
+      type: list
+      elements: any
+      required: true
+'''
+
+RETURN = '''
+  _value:
+    description: A list of cumulated sums of the elements of the input list.
+    type: list
+    elements: any
