About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
# Mode
[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url]
> [F][f-distribution] distribution [mode][mode].
The [mode][mode] for a [F][f-distribution] random variable with numerator degrees of freedom `d1` and denominator degrees of freedom `d2` is
```math
\mathop{\mathrm{mode}}\left( X \right) = \frac{d_{1}-2}{d_{1}} \; \frac{d_{2}}{d_{2}+2}
```
for `d1 > 2` and `d2 > 0`. Otherwise, the mode is not defined.
## Installation
```bash
npm install @stdlib/stats-base-dists-f-mode
```
Alternatively,
- To load the package in a website via a `script` tag without installation and bundlers, use the [ES Module][es-module] available on the [`esm`][esm-url] branch (see [README][esm-readme]).
- If you are using Deno, visit the [`deno`][deno-url] branch (see [README][deno-readme] for usage intructions).
- For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the [Universal Module Definition (UMD)][umd] build available on the [`umd`][umd-url] branch (see [README][umd-readme]).
The [branches.md][branches-url] file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.
To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.
## Usage
```javascript
var mode = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-f-mode' );
```
#### mode( d1, d2 )
Returns the [mode][mode] of an [F][f-distribution] distribution with parameters `d1` (numerator degrees of freedom) and `d2` (denominator degrees of freedom).
```javascript
var v = mode( 4.0, 5.0 );
// returns ~0.357
v = mode( 4.0, 12.0 );
// returns ~0.429
v = mode( 8.0, 4.0 );
// returns 0.5
```
If provided `NaN` as any argument, the function returns `NaN`.
```javascript
var v = mode( NaN, 3.0 );
// returns NaN
v = mode( 3.0, NaN );
// returns NaN
```
If provided `d1 <= 2`, the function returns `NaN`.
```javascript
var v = mode( 1.0, 3.0 );
// returns NaN
v = mode( -1.0, 3.0 );
// returns NaN
```
If provided `d2 <= 0`, the function returns `NaN`.
```javascript
var v = mode( 3.0, 0.0 );
// returns NaN
v = mode( 3.0, -1.0 );
// returns NaN
```
## Examples
```javascript
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var EPS = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-eps' );
var mode = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-f-mode' );
var d1;
var d2;
var v;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
d1 = ( randu()*10.0 ) + EPS;
d2 = ( randu()*10.0 ) + EPS;
v = mode( d1, d2 );
console.log( 'd1: %d, d2: %d, mode(X;d1,d2): %d', d1.toFixed( 4 ), d2.toFixed( 4 ), v.toFixed( 4 ) );
}
```

## C APIs
### Usage
```c
#include "stdlib/stats/base/dists/f/mode.h"
```
#### stdlib_base_dists_f_mode( d1, d2 )
Evaluates the [mode][mode] of an [F][f-distribution] distribution with parameters `d1` (numerator degrees of freedom) and `d2` (denominator degrees of freedom).
```c
double out = stdlib_base_dists_f_mode( 3.0, 5.0 );
// returns ~0.238
```
The function accepts the following arguments:
- **d1**: `[in] double` numerator degrees of freedom.
- **d2**: `[in] double` denominator degrees of freedom.
```c
double stdlib_base_dists_f_mode( const double d1, const double d2 );
```
### Examples
```c
#include "stdlib/stats/base/dists/f/mode.h"
#include "stdlib/constants/float64/eps.h"
#include
#include
static double random_uniform( const double min, const double max ) {
double v = (double)rand() / ( (double)RAND_MAX + 1.0 );
return min + ( v*(max-min) );
}
int main( void ) {
double d1;
double d2;
double y;
int i;
for ( i = 0; i < 25; i++ ) {
d1 = random_uniform( STDLIB_CONSTANT_FLOAT64_EPS, 10.0 );
d2 = random_uniform( STDLIB_CONSTANT_FLOAT64_EPS, 10.0 );
y = stdlib_base_dists_f_mode( d1, d2 );
printf( "d1: %lf, d2: %lf, mode(X;d1,d2): %lf\n", d1, d2, y );
}
}
```
