There are a few edge cases to account for when calculating the mode of a dataset. First, if every value appears the same number of times, there is no mode.
To calculate this, you will use a Set. A Set is a data structure that only allows unique values. If you pass an array into the Set constructor, it will remove any duplicate values.
Start by creating an if statement. In the condition, create a Set with new Set() and pass it the Object.values() of your counts object. If the size property of this Set is equal to 1, that tells you every value appears the same number of times. In this case, return null from your function.
--hints--
Your getMode function should have an if statement.
assert.match(getMode.toString(), /if\s*\(/);
Your if statement should create a new Set and pass the Object.values() of your counts object.
assert.match(getMode.toString(), /if\s*\(\s*new\s+Set\s*\(\s*Object\.values\s*\(\s*counts\s*\)/);
Your if statement should check if the size property of the new Set is equal to 1.
assert.match(getMode.toString(), /if\s*\(\s*new\s+Set\s*\(\s*Object\.values\s*\(\s*counts\s*\)\s*\)\s*\.size\s*===\s*1/);
Your if statement should return null if the size property of the new Set is equal to 1.
assert.match(getMode.toString(), /if\s*\(\s*new\s+Set\s*\(\s*Object\.values\s*\(\s*counts\s*\)\s*\)\.size\s*===\s*1\s*\)\s*\{?\s*return\s+null\s*;?\s*\}?/);
