Dear R users
I have a very basic question. I tried but could not find the required result. using
dat <- pima
f <- table(dat[,9])

f
  0   1 500 268
i want to find that class say "0" having maximum frequency i.e 500. I used
which.max(f)
which provide 0 1 How can i get only the "0". Thanks and

table(iris$Species)

    setosa versicolor  virginica
        50         50         50

which.max(table(iris$Species))
setosa
     1

names(which.max(table(iris$Species)))
[1] "setosa"

If, as above, more than one category frequency is at the maximum, you might want something like this:

x <- table(iris$Species)

which(x == max(x))
    setosa versicolor  virginica
         1          2          3

names(which(x == max(x)))
[1] "setosa"     "versicolor" "virginica"
