BP876 Precise sorting of potential examples vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left Bongard Problems do not have to sort all relevant examples; if they would leave some border cases unsorted, it just has to be clear precisely which examples those would be.


Often a precise divide between values on a spectrum comes from intuitively "crossing a threshold." For example, there is an intuitive threshold between acute and obtuse angles. Two sides of a Bongard Problem on opposite ends of a threshold, coming close to it, are interpreted as having precise divide between sides, right up against that threshold.
