I just did this the other day.  Funny you should ask.  It finds the
mode of each row of a matrix called Pbest.

Pbest.p <- apply(Pbest,1,function(x) 
 x[which.max(as.vector(table(x)))][1])

So to get the mode of a vector v1, the following should work (but I
haven't tried it):

v1[which.max(as.vector(table(v1)))][1]
