Problem

We're cleaning a batch of sensor readings where noise scatters around one true value that was recorded more often than any other reading. Return that value from the list of integers; you can assume the most frequent value is unique.

Summary

Noise scatters in every direction; the true reading is the one that keeps coming back.
