StemExponent

is an option for StemLeafPlot which specifies the integer power of 10 to be used as the stem unit.

Details and Options

To use StemExponent, you first need to load the Statistical Plots Package using Needs["StatisticalPlots`"].
Valid settings for StemExponent are Automatic or an integer.
With the setting StemExponent->n, the base unit is taken to be 10ⁿ.
With the default setting StemExponent->Automatic, the magnitude of the base unit for stems is chosen based on the data.
StemExponent can take the following suboptions:
"UnitDivisions" 1 number of divisions for each stem unit

"DivisionLabels" None list of labels appended to stem numbers within each unit division
With the setting StemExponent->{n,"UnitDivisions"->m}, the interval between i 10ⁿ and (i+1)10ⁿ is divided into m stems.
Valid settings for the suboption "DivisionLabels" are None or a list of labels of a length equal to the setting for the "UnitDivisions" suboption.
