#This will return the list sorted by frequency:

def orderByFrequency(list):

    listUniqueValues = np.unique(list)
    listQty = []
    listOrderedByFrequency = []
    
    for i in range(len(listUniqueValues)):
        listQty.append(list.count(listUniqueValues[i]))
    for i in range(len(listQty)):
        index_bigger = np.argmax(listQty)
        for j in range(listQty[index_bigger]):
            listOrderedByFrequency.append(listUniqueValues[index_bigger])
        listQty[index_bigger] = -1
    return listOrderedByFrequency

#And this will return a list with the most frequent values in a list:

def getMostFrequentValues(list):
    
    if (len(list) <= 1):
        return list
    
    list_most_frequent = []
    list_ordered_by_frequency = orderByFrequency(list)
    
    list_most_frequent.append(list_ordered_by_frequency[0])
    frequency = list_ordered_by_frequency.count(list_ordered_by_frequency[0])
    
    index = 0
    while(index < len(list_ordered_by_frequency)):
        index = index + frequency
        
        if(index < len(list_ordered_by_frequency)):
            testValue = list_ordered_by_frequency[index]
            testValueFrequency = list_ordered_by_frequency.count(testValue)
            
            if (testValueFrequency == frequency):
                list_most_frequent.append(testValue)
            else:
                break    
    
    return list_most_frequent

#tests:
print(getMostFrequentValues([]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([1]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([1,1]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([2,1]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([2,2,1]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([1,2,1,2]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([1,2,1,2,2]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([3,2,3,5,6,3,2,2]))
print(getMostFrequentValues([1,2,2,60,50,3,3,50,3,4,50,4,4,60,60]))

Results:
[]
[1]
[1]
[1, 2]
[2]
[1, 2]
[2]
[2, 3]
[3, 4, 50, 60]

最常见的元素应该是在数组中出现超过N/2次的元素，其中N是len(数组)。下面的技术将以O(n)个时间复杂度完成，只消耗O(1)个辅助空间。

from collections import Counter

def majorityElement(arr):        
    majority_elem = Counter(arr)
    size = len(arr)
    for key, val in majority_elem.items():
        if val > size/2:
            return key
    return -1

我在最近的一个项目中需要这样做。我承认，我无法理解Alex的回答，所以这就是我最后得到的答案。

def mostPopular(l):
    mpEl=None
    mpIndex=0
    mpCount=0
    curEl=None
    curCount=0
    for i, el in sorted(enumerate(l), key=lambda x: (x[1], x[0]), reverse=True):
        curCount=curCount+1 if el==curEl else 1
        curEl=el
        if curCount>mpCount \
        or (curCount==mpCount and i<mpIndex):
            mpEl=curEl
            mpIndex=i
            mpCount=curCount
    return mpEl, mpCount, mpIndex

我根据Alex的解决方案计时，对于短列表，它要快10-15%，但一旦超过100个或更多元素(测试多达20万个)，它就会慢20%。

简单的一行解决方案

moc= max([(lst.count(chr),chr) for chr in set(lst)])

它会返回频率最高的元素。

你可能不再需要这个了，但这是我对一个类似问题所做的。(因为评论，它看起来比实际要长。)

itemList = ['hi', 'hi', 'hello', 'bye']

counter = {}
maxItemCount = 0
for item in itemList:
    try:
        # Referencing this will cause a KeyError exception
        # if it doesn't already exist
        counter[item]
        # ... meaning if we get this far it didn't happen so
        # we'll increment
        counter[item] += 1
    except KeyError:
        # If we got a KeyError we need to create the
        # dictionary key
        counter[item] = 1

    # Keep overwriting maxItemCount with the latest number,
    # if it's higher than the existing itemCount
    if counter[item] > maxItemCount:
        maxItemCount = counter[item]
        mostPopularItem = item

print mostPopularItem

我这样做使用scipy统计模块和lambda:

import scipy.stats
lst = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,5]
most_freq_val = lambda x: scipy.stats.mode(x)[0][0]
print(most_freq_val(lst))

结果:

 most_freq_val = 5
