How to use this tool
Enter numbers separated by commas or spaces.
Read one stack of dots per value.
Read count, mean, median, mode and range.
Look for tall stacks, gaps and outliers in the plot.
Formula & worked example
For 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5 the dot plot stacks 3 dots above 3, the mean is 2.875 and the mode is 3.
Limitations — read this before you rely on it
Exact-value stacking only; continuous data with many distinct values will show many single dots.
Frequently asked questions
A chart where each observation is one dot stacked above its value on a number line, showing shape, clusters and gaps at a glance.
For small data sets with repeated exact values, where binning would hide the real counts.
Exact-value stacking gets sparse; round to one decimal first or use a histogram for continuous data.
It is the value with the tallest stack of dots.
Yes — comma, space or newline separated numbers all work.
