# --description--
|
|
|
|
Write a program to find the [mode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode (statistics) "wp: Mode (statistics)") value of a collection.
|
|
|
|
The case where the collection is empty may be ignored. Care must be taken to handle the case where the mode is non-unique.
|
|
|
|
If it is not appropriate or possible to support a general collection, use a vector (array), if possible. If it is not appropriate or possible to support an unspecified value type, use integers.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
`mode` should be a function.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(typeof mode === 'function');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`mode([1, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 12, 12, 17])` should equal `[6]`
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.deepEqual(mode(arr1), [6]);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`mode([1, 2, 4, 4, 1])` should equal `[1, 4]`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.deepEqual(mode(arr2).sort(), [1, 4]);
|
|
```
