computeMode: Compute statistical mode of a vector (value that occurs most frequently).
Description
Works for integer, numeric, factor and character vectors.
The implementation is currently not extremely efficient.
Usage
computeMode(x, ties.method = "random", na.rm = TRUE)
Value
Modal value of length 1, data type depends on data type of x
.
Arguments
- x
[vector
]
Factor, character, integer, numeric or logical vector.
- ties.method
[character(1)
]
“first”, “random”, “last”: Decide which value to take in case of ties.
Default is “random”.
- na.rm
[logical(1)
]
If TRUE
, missing values in the data removed.
if FALSE
, they are used as a separate level and this level could therefore
be returned as the most frequent one.
Default is TRUE
.
