Hi, I have problem here...I am writing a program but I am getting
stucked at how to solve the mode of a series of numbers...any ideas???
The customary approach is to collect counts of each value in a
dictionary. Untested code follows:
from collections import defaultdict
def mode(data):
numdict = defaultdict(int)
for num in data: # correction
numdict[num] += 1 # correction
numlist = [(count, num) for num, count in nums.items()]
numlist.sort()
print 'The mode is: ', numlist[-1][1]
