Computes the mode (most frequent value) of an atomic vector.

Usage

compute_mode(x, ties_method = "random", na_rm = TRUE)

Arguments

x

(vector()).

ties_method

(character(1))
Handling of ties. One of "first", "last" or "random" to return the first tied value, the last tied value, or a randomly selected tied value, respectively.

na_rm

(logical(1))
If TRUE, remove missing values prior to computing the mode.

Value

(vector(1)): mode value.

Examples

compute_mode(c(1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3))
#> [1] 1
compute_mode(c(1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3), ties_method = "last")
#> [1] 2
compute_mode(c(1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3), ties_method = "random")
#> [1] 2
