Assuming that your vector contains only integers: > v <- sample(1:5, size=20, replace=T) > v [1] 1 1 1 1 2 3 5 1 1 5 2 4 1 3 1 1 5 4 1 5 > vt <- table(v) > as.numeric(names(vt[vt == max(vt)])) [1] 1 > Cheers, Gad #---------------------------- or more succinctly, > names(vt[which.max(vt)]) [1] "1" John ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
