Get the item that appears the most times in an array

Question

var store = [\'1\',\'2\',\'2\',\'3\',\'4\'];

I want to find out that 2 appear the most in the array. How do I go about doing that?

Answer 1

This is my solution.

var max_frequent_elements = function(arr){
var a = [], b = [], prev;
arr.sort();
for ( var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++ ) {
    if ( arr[i] !== prev ) {
        a.push(arr[i]);
        b.push(1);
    } else {
        b[b.length-1]++;
    }
    prev = arr[i];
}


var max = b[0]
for(var p=1;pmax)max=b[p]
 }

var indices = []
for(var q=0;q

};
