BP968 Valid Bongard Problem vs. invalid Bongard Problem.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

"Invalid Bongard Problems" are images that look sort of like Bongard Problems but aren't actually Bongard Problems.


With many examples included, this Problem might be placed somewhere to nonverbally show someone the subtler rules about what is allowed and what isn't allowed in Bongard Problems.


See BP829 for the Bongard Problem about Bongard Problems with no clear solution.

CROSSREFS

See BP522 (flipped) for a version with links to pages on the OEBP instead of images of Bongard Problems (miniproblems).


See BP829 (flipped) for a near exact copy of this Bongard Problem idea but that does not include images with two of the same boxes on either side.

Also see BP1080, which includes various different formats of Bongard Problems, distinguishing them from arbitrary images that are not Bongard Problems.
