    To sum all the positive node values, you can do:

    <xsl:value-of select="sum(//*[. &gt; 0])" />
    

    To sum all the negative node values, you can do:

    <xsl:value-of select="sum(//*[. &lt; 0])" />
    

    To sum the absolute values of the numbers, you can do:

    <xsl:value-of select="sum(//*[. &gt; 0]) - sum(//*[. &lt; 0])" />
