The mode() function is an inbuilt function in the Python Wand ImageMagick library which is used to replace each pixel with the mathematical mode of the neighboring colors.
Syntax:
mode(width, height)Parameters: This function accepts two parameters as mentioned above and defined below:
- width: This parameter is used to store the number of neighboring pixels to include in mode.
- height: This is an optional parameter is used to store height of neighboring pixels. By default it is same as width.
Return Value: This function returns the Wand ImageMagick object.

Example 1:
# Import library from Image
from wand.image import Image
# Import the image
with Image(filename ='../geeksforgeeks.png') as image:
# Clone the image in order to process
with image.clone() as mode:
# Invoke mode function with width as 30 and height as 10
mode.mode(30, 10)
# Save the image
mode.save(filename ='mode1.jpg')

mode.mode(30, 10)

# Save the image

mode.save(filename ='mode1.jpg')

Example 2:
# Import libraries from the wand
from wand.image import Image
from wand.drawing import Drawing
from wand.color import Color
with Drawing() as draw:
# Set Stroke color the circle to black
draw.stroke_color = Color('black')
# Set Width of the circle to 2
draw.stroke_width = 1
# Set the fill color to 'White (# FFFFFF)'
draw.fill_color = Color('white')
# Invoke Circle function with center at 50, 50 and radius 25
draw.circle((200, 200), # Center point
(100, 100)) # Perimeter point
# Set the font style
draw.font = '../Helvetica.ttf'
# Set the font size
draw.font_size = 30
with Image(width = 400, height = 400, background = Color('# 45ff33')) as pic:
# Set the text and its location
draw.text(int(pic.width / 3), int(pic.height / 2), 'GeeksForGeeks !')
# Draw the picture
draw(pic)
# Invoke mode function with width and height as 200
pic.mode(200)
# Save the image
pic.save(filename ='mode2.jpg')
