Description:
Calculate the frequency of a specified member in a sequence.
Syntax:
A.freq(o)
Note:
The MathCli external library function (See External Library Guide) calculates the frequency of o in sequence A; if parameter o is absent, find the frequency of null values (including empty strings and NA).
Parameter:
| 
   A  | 
  
  
   A sequence.  | 
  
 
| 
   o  | 
  
  
   A string/number.  | 
  
 
Return value:
Double-precision number
Example:
| 
   
  | 
  
  
   A  | 
  
  
   
  | 
  
 
| 
   1  | 
  
  
   [0,NA,2,3,,5,6,3,100,9]  | 
  
  
   
  | 
  
 
| 
   2  | 
  
  
   =A1.freq(3)  | 
  
  
   
 Member 3 in A1’s sequence appears twice, and the frequency is 2/10=0.2.  | 
  
 
| 
   3  | 
  
  
   =A1.freq()  | 
  
  
   
 Return the frequency of null value.  |
