A stemplot is a visual representation of a distribution where each number is split into a "stem" (the first digit or digits) and a "leaf" (the last digit). The stems are arranged in ascending order and the leaves corresponding to each stem are listed next to it, forming a picture of the distribution. It is a useful tool for describing numerical variables.
