Left-sorted BPs have the keyword "left-finite" in the OEBP.

How to distinguish between different examples depends on the Bongard Problem. For example, in BPs about little black dots, examples may be considered the same when they have the same number of dots in all the same positions.

Note that this is not just BP516 (right-finite) flipped.

"Left-finite" implies left-narrow.

See left-listable, which is about an infinite left side that can be organized into a neverending list versus infinite left side that cannot be organized into a neverending list.

"Left-finite" BPs are typically precise.

See BP1032 for a version that sorts images of Bongard Problems (miniproblems) instead of links, and which only sorts images of Bongard Problems about numbers.

Left-sorted BPs have the keyword "right-finite" in the OEBP.

BPs are sorted based on how BP515 (left-finite) would sort them were they flipped; see that page for a description.

"Right-finite" implies right-narrow.

See right-listable, which is about an infinite right side that can be organized into a neverending list versus infinite right side that cannot be organized into a neverending list.

"Right-finite" BPs are typically precise.

See BP1041 for a version that sorts images of Bongard Problems (miniproblems) instead of links, and which only sorts images of Bongard Problems about numbers.

Left examples have the keyword "experimental" on the OEBP.

Right examples have the keyword "traditional" on the OEBP.

Experimental BPs push the boundaries of what makes Bongard Problems Bongard Problems.

Traditional BPs show some simple property of black and white pictures. The OEBP is a place with many wild and absurd Bongard Problems, so it is useful to have an easy way to just find the regular old Bongard Problems.

Left-sorted BPs have the keyword "left-full" on the OEBP.

For meta-BPs about solution ideas, left-full only means the BP page hopes to include all fitting BP pages on the OEBP (as opposed to all possible Bongard Problems).

As with applying the keywords left-finite and right-finite, deciding what should count as "different" examples depends on the Bongard Problem.

Note this is not just BP574 (right-full) flipped.

TODO: Maybe this should be changed into two keywords: one for non-meta-BPs and one for meta-BPs. - Aaron David Fairbanks, Feb 11 2021

For non-meta BPs, left-full implies left-finite (at least until the OEBP implements a feature that allows algorithmic generation of infinite examples).

Left-sorted BPs have the keyword "right-full" on the OEBP.

BPs are sorted based on how BP573 (left-full) would sort them were they flipped; see that page for a description.

Left examples are not required to be valid, as long as their solution doesn't apply in the traditional Bongard Problem format (6 panels vs. 6 panels, all one image). Additionally, they do not necessarily have to be rendered invalid by being viewed in the template format, but their solution does have to be altered. In some cases left examples are simply Problems whose solution is specific to the computer medium (BP941), however some examples have more profound solutions that the pen-and-paper template medium is too restrictive to represent (BP854).

See BP568.
