Hello 

Thank you for the email.

Yes I think I was reading the problem wrong but I did write the code and it
works fine.  Problem two is a problem however.

I couldn't remember what a mode was so I looked at:

It would seem that both problems have to do with counting the numbers of
identical elements in a set or list.  Can you write a programme to do that
as a start?
