Approximately symmetric vs. asymmetric.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Or, "evokes idea of symmetry (see BP760) vs. not so," which is also a solution for BP847. - Aaron David Fairbanks, Jul 29 2020`

BP882

Vaguely positive vs. vaguely negative

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Requires cultural knowledge, e.g. for specific warning symbols`

BP930

BP Pages on the OEBP where users are advised to upload examples that help people (by hinting at the solution) vs. other BP Pages.

	COMMENTS	`Left examples have the keyword "help" on the OEBP.` `BPs should be marked "help" when the OEBP wants most examples (at least on one side) to be helpful (not when just one or two uploaded examples are helpful).` `Helpfulness can be a spectrum; most Bongard Problems are helpful to some degree just by not using the most convoluted unintelligible examples possible.` `Examples that are helpful to people are often not particularly helpful to computers.` `Any helpful Bongard Problem has a harder, not helpful version. For example, BP384 (square number of dots versus non-square number of dots) would be much harder if all examples had hundreds of dots that weren't arranged recognizably. Instead, the dots in the examples are always arranged in shapes that make the square-ness or non-square-ness of the numbers easy to check without brute counting.` `When all examples in a Bongard Problem are helpful, it may become unclear whether the helpfulness is part of the Bongard Problem's solution.` `E.g.: Is the left-hand side of BP384 "square number of dots", or is it "square number of dots that are arranged in a helpful way so as to communicate the square-ness"?` `See seemslike, where examples being helpful is an irremovable aspect of the Bongard Problem's solution.`

BP939

Optical illusions vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Panels on the left hand side contain geometrical objects that appear distorted (to a human) due to surrounding information.`

BP1002

Vaguely self-similar (looks like self-similar fractal after one iteration) vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	CROSSREFS	`See BP1004 for a Problem about conceptual self-similarity instead of visual self-similarity.` `See BP188 for a similar Problem restricted to shape outlines made of shape outlines.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP997 BP998 BP999 BP1000 BP1001 * BP1003 BP1004 BP1005 BP1006 BP1007`

BP1004

The whole satisfies the same rule as its parts vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`The "whole" is the entire panel including the bounding box. A "part" is some region either stylistically different or amply separated in space from everything else. Smaller parts-within-parts don't count as parts.` `Rhetorical question: Where would the collection of left examples of this Bongard Problem be sorted by this Bongard Problem? (The question is whether these examples considered together satisfy the pattern that all the parts do, namely that the whole satisfies the pattern that all the parts do.)` `See BP793 and BP999 for similar paradoxes.`
	CROSSREFS	`See BP1006 for the version about numerical properties where each part is a cluster of dots; examples in that BP would be sorted the same way here that they are there.` `See BP999 and BP1003 for versions where each object is itself a collection of objects, so that the focus is on rules specifically pertaining to collections (e.g. "all the objects are different").` `See BP1002 for a Bongard Problem about only visual self-similarity instead of conceptual self-similarity.` `The rule shown in each panel is "narrow" (see BP513^left and BP514^left).` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP999 BP1000 BP1001 BP1002 BP1003 * BP1005 BP1006 BP1007 BP1008 BP1009`

BP1110

The process that turns one object into the other is the same both ways vs. the process changes depending on which object is chosen as the starting point.
