Damsara Welivita , Roshaan , Basil , > the use of statistics.mode(...) does not give a correct result if 2 numbers have the same number of occurrence. it only returns the first one. > we can use statistics.multimode(...) instead. see sample code in the file: https://code.sololearn.com/cuqRZgC5EpeB/?ref=app

To find the most frequently occurring number in a Python list, you can use the Counter class from the collections module.

from collections import Counter # Example arrays arr1 = [1, 1, 2, 6, 6, 6, 6, 9] arr2 = [1, 1, 1, 8, 6, 7, 7, 7, 9] # Count the frequency of each number in the array count1 = Counter(arr1) count2 = Counter(arr2) # Find the most common number(s) and their frequency most_common1, freq1 = count1.most_common(1)[0] most_common2 = count2.most_common(2) freq2 = most_common2[0][1] # Print the results print(f"Array 1: {arr1}") print(f"Most common number(s): {[num for num, count in most_common1]}") print(f"Frequency: {freq1}") print(f"\nArray 2: {arr2}") print(f"Most common number(s): {[num for num, count in most_common2]}") print(f"Frequency: {freq2}")

Use a dict, it is very easy and simple: array = [1,1,1,2,4,6,6,7,7,7,7,7] s_2 = {} for i in array: s_2[i] = s_2.get(i, 0) + 1 print(max(s_2.keys(), key = lambda k: s_2[k])) In the code below: there is an additional code for numbers from the highest number of repetitions to the lowest number of repetitions https://code.sololearn.com/cY9Q7sEB4v49/?ref=app
