## Compute the most frequently occurring value in a dataset (mode).
##
## @code{mode} determines the frequency of values along the first non-singleton
## dimension and returns the value with the highest frequency.  If two, or
## more, values have the same frequency @code{mode} returns the smallest.
##
## If the optional argument @var{dim} is given, operate along this dimension.
##
## The return variable @var{f} is the number of occurrences of the mode in
## the dataset.
##
## The cell array @var{c} contains all of the elements with the maximum
## frequency.
