distmode: Compute the mode of a distribution
In lawremi/HelloRanges: Introduce *Ranges to bedtools users
distmode R Documentation
Compute the mode of a distribution
Description
Computes the mode (and “antimode”) of a distribution. It is not
clear whether this is a generally useful statistic, but
bedtools defined it, so we did for completeness.
Usage
distmode(x, anti = FALSE)
Arguments
x
The vector for which the mode is computed.
anti
Whether to return the value with the least representation, instead
of the highest.
Details
There are methods for List subclasses and ordinary
vectors/factors. The List methods are useful for aggregation.
Value
The value that is the most (or least) prevalent in the x.
Author(s)

Not to be confused with the data mode of a vector.
bedtools_map for an example in the context of aggregation.
Examples
distmode(c(1L, 2L, 1L))
