- Dylan16807 6y ago> Mode is an average. They sure do claim that to elementary school children. But using mode sounds absolutely insane to me. Does any field actually do that? Maybe you could carefully bucket/smooth your data and then use the peak, but that's a far cry from taking raw numbers and looking at the most common.
