I’ve seen it asked a number of times. Here’s a simple calculation of the mode of a list.
I get that you’re taking the average of two elements of sorted list N_{S}
, but what elements are you averaging? What do the floor
and ceil
functions get you?
Mode should result in the most common value, but if I change 3 values to 11 (making 11 most common), the output of mode is not 11.
\operatorname{floor}\left(\frac{\operatorname{length}\left(N\right)+1}{2}\right)
Brain fart. Median, not mode, which makes this totally unnecessary becaues there’s a function for it.
