search for: trimodal

Hi, is there any package/function that can tell if a numeric vector (continuous data) has a bimodal or trimodal distribution and caluclate the location of the corresponding modes? Thanks

...or(p in 1:512) ifelse(CnBdens$y[512-p]>CnBdens$y[512-p +1],peak2<-512-p,break) #identifies second peak in probability distribution but the simulation sometimes produces a small third peak at one end of the distribution. Is there any simple way to identify the two highest maxima in a trimodal distribution?
