Explanation:

result = pd.Series(pd.date_range('2020-01-01', periods=52, freq='W-SUN'))

The above code creates a Pandas Series object 'result' containing 52 elements, where each element represents a Sunday from a range of dates starting from '2020-01-01' and extending to 52 weeks (i.e., one year) in the future. The dates are generated using the pd.date_range() function, which creates a range of dates with a specified frequency.

Here, the frequency is set to 'W-SUN', which indicates weekly frequency on Sundays. Therefore, the resulting series contains 52 dates that fall on Sundays, with one date per week.

Finally the resulting series is printed using the print() function.
