Stem-and-Leaf Plot of
Two-Letter SCRABBLE® Words

This is an updated version of a form originally sent to me by Dan Berger of Lexington, Massachusetts, who arranged the words so that one could easily see words that started with said letter at the top of the plot, and words that ended with said letter at the bottom of the plot. It can be called a statistical analysis of the distribution of two-letter words in the alphabet. He sent it to me in memory of our semester in a seminar with graph guru Edward Tufte.
