mode

Syntax

m=mode(x)

m=mode(x,dim)

[m,f,c]=mode(...)

Inputs

x

Data sample.

Type: double

Dimension: vector | matrix

dim

Dimension on which to perform the calculation.

Default: first non-singleton dimension.

Type: integer

Dimension: scalar

Outputs

m

The mode values. When multiple modes occur, the lowest value is reported.

Dimension: scalar | vector | matrix

f

The frequency of the mode values.

Dimension: scalar | vector | matrix

c

The values that occur at the maximum frequency.

Type: cell

Example

a = [2, 5, 6, 7, 10, 7, 6, 7, 6];
[m,f,c] = mode(a)

m = 6
f = 3
c =
{
  [1,1] [Matrix] 2 x 1
  6
  7
}
