DOC: update the DataFrame.mode method docstring
Checklist for the pandas documentation sprint (ignore this if you are doing
an unrelated PR):

- [x] PR title is "DOC: update the <your-function-or-method> docstring"
- [x] The validation script passes: `scripts/validate_docstrings.py <your-function-or-method>`
- [x] The PEP8 style check passes: `git diff upstream/master -u -- "*.py" | flake8 --diff`
- [x] The html version looks good: `python doc/make.py --single <your-function-or-method>`
- [x] It has been proofread on language by another sprint participant

################################################################################
###################### Docstring (pandas.DataFrame.mode)  ######################
################################################################################

Get the mode(s) of each element along the axis selected.

Adds a row for each mode per label, filling gaps with NaN.

Parameters
----------
axis : {0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0
    The axis to iterate over while searching for the mode.
    To find the mode for each column, iterate over rows (``axis=0``
    default behaviour).
    To find the mode for each row, iterate over columns (``axis=1``).
numeric_only : boolean, default False
    If True, only apply to numeric dimensions.

Returns
-------
modes : DataFrame (sorted)
    A DataFrame containing the modes
    If ``axis=0``, there will be one column per column in the original
    DataFrame, with as many rows as there are modes.
    If ``axis=1``, there will be one row per row in the original
    DataFrame, with as many columns as there are modes.

Notes
-----
There may be multiple values returned for the selected
axis (when more than one item share the maximum frequency), which is
the reason why a dataframe is returned. If you want to impute missing
values with the mode in a dataframe ``df``, you can just do this:
``df.fillna(df.mode().iloc[0])``.

See Also
--------
Series.mode : Return the highest frequency value in a Series.
Series.value_counts : Returns a Series with all occuring values as
    indices and the number of occurences as values.

Examples
--------

``mode`` returns a DataFrame with multiple rows if there is more than
one mode. Missing entries are imputed with NaN.

>>> grades = pd.DataFrame({
...     'Science': [80, 70, 80, 75, 80, 75, 85, 90, 80, 70],
...     'Math': [70, 70, 75, 75, 80, 80, 85, 85, 90, 90]
... })
>>> grades.apply(lambda x: x.value_counts())
    Science  Math
70        2     2
75        2     2
80        4     2
85        1     2
90        1     2
>>> grades.mode()
   Science  Math
0     80.0    70
1      NaN    75
2      NaN    80
3      NaN    85
4      NaN    90

Use ``axis=1`` to apply mode over columns (get the mode of each row).

>>> student_grades = pd.DataFrame.from_dict({
...     'Alice': [80, 85, 90, 85, 95],
...     'Bob': [70, 80, 80, 75, 90]
... }, 'index')
>>> student_grades
        0   1   2   3   4
Alice  80  85  90  85  95
Bob    70  80  80  75  90
>>> student_grades.mode(axis=1)
        0
Alice  85
Bob    80

Docstring for "pandas.DataFrame.mode" correct. :)

If the validation script still gives errors, but you think there is a good reason
to deviate in this case (and there are certainly such cases), please state this
explicitly.


Hello @mkoo21! Thanks for updating the PR.

 - In the file [`pandas/core/frame.py`](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/e476c551319b64a46e4fb8b83305cadc6b70098f/pandas/core/frame.py), following are the PEP8 issues :

> [Line 5950:1](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/e476c551319b64a46e4fb8b83305cadc6b70098f/pandas/core/frame.py#L5950): [W293](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=pep8%20W293) blank line contains whitespace



##### Comment last updated on March 11, 2018 at 21:14 Hours UTC @mkoo21 Can you try to follow the guidelines please? Check for PEP8, paste the output of the validation script Sorry, I thought I ran the PEP8 check but it wasn't outputting anything when I ran it earlier.

 I've made the requested changes to the text. The validation and PEP8 scripts passed. I'm not sure how to address the CI failures on my end. Is there anything else I need to do? Superseded by #22404 (discontinued PR, and the source branch does not exist anymore).
