: Agreed that the WP article is confusing (perhaps one of us ought to improve it!) but I think I've extracted the key part to make the Tcl solution. It even handles signed fractional data, should that be presented. I ''think'' it is easier to convert the data to stems and leaves and store in a map (from stems to a sequence of leaves) before sorting any of it. Or at least that was what made sense to me. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 09:37, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 
: Short question aside: How should missing stems be handled? One example on your page lists stems without leaves in between the stems that have leaves. For An overview of the data distribution this is certainly of value but it can make the plot needlessly long. Maybe it should be clarified whether stems without leaves should be represented in the output or not. —[[User:Hypftier|Johannes Rössel]] 14:12, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
