Definition of Mode

The mode is a statistical measure that refers to the value or values that appear most frequently in a dataset.

Key Points:

• The mode can be used for both categorical and numerical data.
• For categorical data, the mode represents the category with the highest frequency.
• For numerical data, the mode represents the value or values with the highest frequency.
• A dataset can have one mode, known as unimodal, or multiple modes, known as multimodal.
• If no value is repeated in the dataset, it is considered to have no mode.
