 | | The mode is not necessarily unique, unlike the arithmetic mean and the median. |
 | | It is most useful when the values or observations are not numeric: for example, while the mode of {1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 9} is 2, the mode of {apple, apple, banana, orange, orange, orange, peach} is orange. |
 | | Modes are written in Emacs's LISP, and all modes may not be included with all versions. |
