It is a way of presenting data for a set that can be divided into two categories with the aim to make it easier to compare the two subsets. An example could be the weight of boys and girls in a class - where you might want to see if there was an obvious gender difference.
The stem runs down the middle of the diagram, the leaves for one subset (boys) would go on one side of the stem and those for the other subset (girls) would go on the other side.

What are Stem Leaf Plots?
A stem-and-leaf plot is a convenient way to organize data using numerical order and place value.
How do you find a outlier in a stem and leaf plot?
It will usually be on a stem, all by itself, a long way from the nearest stem.
What is A statistical way of displaying elements in a data set. The first digit is on the left side of a vertical line and the rest of the digits lie on the right side of the vertical line.?
It is called a stem-and-leaf diagram or chart.
Is a stem and leaf plot done the same way with a three digit number?
Yes
Why is it easier to read data in a stem and leaf plot than in a table?
It is not. Different people have different preferences for the way in which they can take in data. I'll take a well designed table over a stem and leaf any day.
