This function returns the mode of vectors. That is to say, for any given vector of values, it returns the value that appears most frequently.
The function works with strings, numerical and mixed inputs. NA values are treated as distinct values.
Usage
Mode(x, na.rm = FALSE, first_only = FALSE)
Arguments
- x
A vector
- na.rm
Logical value indicating whether NA values should be omitted. Default is FALSE.
- first_only
Logical value indicating whether only the first mode should be returned if x has multiple modes (i.e. there are multiple values with the highest number of observations). Default is FALSE.
Value
Returns the mode of the vector x
Examples
countries::Mode(c("a","a",2,3))
#> [1] "a"
countries::Mode(c(1,1,2,3,NA,2))
#> [1] 1 2
countries::Mode(c(NA,NA,NA,1,1,2))
#> [1] NA
