50. Stem and Leaf Plot


A stem and leaf plot is similar to a histogram, however it is able to display more information, giving more detail about individual values and arranges the data by place values.  Largest digits are the stem, smaller are the leaves.  As you can see, this stem and leaf plot shows the GNP per capita of Western Africa. $890 being the most, $180 being the least.
