From Moore and McCabe, Introduction to the Practice of Statistics, Fourth 
Edition, page 20 --

To make a "stemplot":

1. Separate each observation into a "stem" consisting of all but the final (rightmost) 
digit and a "leaf", the final digit.  Stems may have as many digits as needed, but each 
leaf contains only a single digit.

2. Write the stems in a vertical column with the smallest at the top, and draw 
a vertical line at the right of this column.

3. Write each leaf in the row to the right of its stem, in increasing order out 
from the stem.
