A Stem and Leaf Plot is a special table where each data value is split into a stem (the first digit or digits) and a "leaf" (usually the last digit)

Answer & Explanation:

A stem and leaf plot is used to organize data as they are collected. A stem and leaf plot looks something like a bar graph. Each number in the data is broken down into a stem and a leaf, thus the name. The stem of the number includes all but the last digit.
