The mode is the value in a list which appears the most frequently. In this section, we are going to discuss an algorithm for finding the mode. We will first try to understand how the mode of a list can be solved using Run-Length Encoding (RLE). We will then break that problem of RLE into parts, and then write the code for our function. Finally, we will use RLE in order to find the mode of a dataset, and then we're going to compute the mode of our 2015 away runs dataset.
To find the mode, we will have to do yet another import. We need to go back up to the very top of the Baseball dataset and import Data.Ord:
We need this for a function ...
