[R] Finding Values that Occur Most Often in a Vector

[Duncan Mackay]

If you just want the value which is the most frequent try

as.numeric(names(which.max(table(c( -295.8045 ,-295.8045, -295.8045, 
-295.8045 ,-325.4754 ,-295.8045, -295.8045, -295.8045, -413.2099, 
-295.8045)))))
[1] -295.8045

There may be easier ways
