Steam and Leaf Plot


A Stem-and-Leaf plot is a graphical display that organizes numerical data in order of place value and assigns it to a category of either a "steam" or "leaf." In this type of map, the data values from the stem and leaf categories combine to form a numeric group. In this Stem-Leaf-plot of student science scores, the highest test score is a 97/A and lowest is a 56/F.
