Returns the most frequent element of data,' which should be a sequence. The<br> algorithm involves sorting, and so the data must be numbers or the
key'
function must produce numbers. Consider sxhash' if no better function is<br> available. Also returns the number of occurrences of the mode. If there is<br> more than one mode, this returns the first mode, as determined by the sorting of<br> the numbers.<br> <br> Keep in mind that if the data has multiple runs of like values that are bigger<br> than the window size (currently defaults to 10% of the size of the data) this<br> function will blindly pick the first one. If this is the case you probabaly<br> should be calling
mode' instead of this function.
