📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds a ChangesMode aggregation
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new mode aggregation function can return the wrong value when multiple values share the highest frequency, despite the documented first-encountered tie rule. This can produce incorrect grouped or summarized table results, so the tie-handling logic should be corrected before merging.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Preserve the first input value among tied modes.
The current update rule selects the value that reaches the current maximum first. For ['a', 'b', 'b', 'a'], both values occur twice, but this returns 'b' instead of the first encountered value, 'a'. Count all values first, then scan values in input order, and add this case to packages/table-core/tests/unit/fns/aggregationFns.test.ts.
Suggested fix
const counts = new Map<unknown, number>()
for (let i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
const value = context.getValue(rows[i]!)
const count = (counts.get(value) ?? 0) + 1
counts.set(value, count)
- if (count > maxCount) {
- maxCount = count
- modeValue = value
- }
+ }
+
+ for (const [value, count] of counts) {
+ if (count > maxCount) {
+ maxCount = count
+ modeValue = value
+ }
