DotPlot[ <List of Raw Data> ]
Returns a dot plot for the given list of numbers, as well as the list of the dot plot points. If a number n appears in the list of raw data k times, the returned list contains points (n, 1), (n, 2),..., (n, k).
Example:
DotPlot[{2, 5, 3, 4, 3, 5, 3}] yields {(2, 1), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (4, 1), (5, 1), (5, 2)}.
