In sboysel/boysel: A collection of miscellaneous R functions

Description

Calculate most frequently occuring value in a vector (statistical mode).

Usage

most_freq(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'numeric'
most_freq(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'character'
most_freq(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'factor'
most_freq(x, ...)

Arguments

x	a vector.
...	additional parameters passed on to table.

Value

a scalar equal to the modal value of x. If x is multimodal, length(x) will equal the number of unique modes in x.
