CSCI1580 Visual Programming

Assignment 3
Deadline: 8-Nov-2022 (Tue) 23:59

Objectives
This assignment allows you to practice using arrays.

Task
Given a list of integers, the mode is the integer that appears most frequently. For example, the mode of
the list of integers [1, 3, 3, 1, 4, 4, 5, 4] is 4. In some cases, it is possible that there is more than one
mode. For example, there are three modes in the list of integers [16, 10, 10, 11, 11, 15, 16] and they are
10, 11, and 16.

In this assignment, your task is to write a Visual Basic console application to first read an integer n from
the user, then read n integers, and output the mode and the frequency. If there are two or more modes,
please print all of them in ascending order.

However, if the frequencies of all numbers are the same, the program will display the message “The
frequencies of all numbers are the same.” Instead. Some examples are [1, 2 ,3, 4, 5], [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3],
and [1, 1, 1].

You can assume all user inputs are always valid, 1 ≤ n ≤ 100, and all n integers are between -1000 and
1000 inclusively.
