Using R-3.3.1 on Linux I seem to sometimes get inaccurate stem-and-leaf plots using stem. For example:
> x <- c(479,482,487,493,494,494,495,496,497,498,498,499,503,504,507,507,508, + 510,511,512,514,516,520,524,525,525,527,534,536,542,545,546,547,549, + 557,559,561,561,563,563,567,568,569,570,572,578,584) > stem(x) The decimal point is 1 digit(s) to the right of the | 46 | 9 48 | 27344567889 50 | 3477801246 52 | 0455746 54 | 2567979 56 | 1133789028 58 | 4 This plot is inaccurate since there are no values 469, 483, 484, etc. in the data. If I remove one value from the input, then the result appears correct: > x <- c(479,482,487,493,494,494,495,496,497,498,498,499,503,504,507,507,508, + 510,511,512,514,516,520,524,525,525,527,534,536,542,545,546,547,549, + 557,559,561,561,563,563,567,568,569,570,572,578) > stem(x) The decimal point is 1 digit(s) to the right of the | 47 | 9 48 | 27 49 | 344567889 50 | 34778 51 | 01246 52 | 04557 53 | 46 54 | 25679 55 | 79 56 | 1133789 57 | 028 Is there a limit to the length of the input argument, a bug in the function, or something I'm missing?
