Stem-and-leaf in Excel. Boo-ya. - Greg - 04-12-2009

Stem-and-leaf diagrams serve the same purpose as histograms, but take up less space. Good for corporate presentations and stuff, assuming management cares to try different approaches.

The trick is to make a scatterplot.

Edward Tufte rocks, and all that.

Good stuff here, too: http://www.mrexcel.com/pc16.shtml

Stem and leaf? I always pick them out. How do you feel about seeds?
