The Mode Function
The modal (or mode) life, is the maximum value of [math]\displaystyle{ T }[/math] that satisfies:
- [math]\displaystyle{ \frac{d\left[ f(t) \right]}{dt}=0 }[/math]
For a continuous distribution, the mode is that value of the variate which corresponds to the maximum probability density (the value where the [math]\displaystyle{ pdf }[/math] has its maximum value).
