Stem and leaf plot

http://www.mytestbook.com/test_questions.aspx?test_id=235&topics=Stem%20Leaf%20Chart&subject=Math&grade=5
A stem and leaf plot is similar to a histogram in that it shows the distribution of a qualitative data set in a graphical format. This map type shows data broken down over intervals. the map above shows quiz scores for a class broken down in ten percent intervals.  The stem number is just an interval which the leaf is attached to.  For example the stem of '4' and its corresponding leaves show the numbers 40 and 49.
