Greetings R Community,
I am working with the ifelse function and it is returning something unexpected.
In the code the line with the MODE1 assignment the output is a vector [1] 4 5
6 but when I put the MODE1 object into the ifelse function [R}'s output for
MODE1 is the first number from the string (4). Why is this? Given the
supplied vector of x I would assume both the MODE1 and ifelse() lines to return
the same result. I would like the ifelse to return the entire vector [1] 4 5 6
as in the previous line.
OS: Win7
R version 2.14 beta

x<-c(2,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,8,10)
df<-as.data.frame(table(x))
df<-df[order(df$Freq),]
m<-max(df$Freq)
(MODE1<-as.vector(as.numeric(as.character(subset(df,Freq==m)[,1]))))
ifelse(sum(df$Freq)/length(df$Freq)==1,warning("No Mode: Frequency of all
values is 1", call. = FALSE),MODE1)

[1] 4
Thank you in advance,
