BP344 Shape can tile itself vs. shape cannot tile itself.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left examples are sometimes called "rep-tiles."


The tiles all must be the same size. More specifically, all left examples can tile themselves only using scaled down and rotated versions of themselves with all tiles the same size. Right examples cannot tile themselves using scaled down rotated versions of themselves or even reflected versions of themselves with all tiles the same size.


Without the puzzle piece-like shape EX4120 on the right side the current examples also allow the solution "shape can tile with itself so as to create a parallelogram vs. shape cannot tile with itself so as to create a parallelogram."

BP359 Random arrangement of pixels vs. not so.

By "random" we mean it's reasonable to expect each pixel in the image was chosen with a constant, consistent chance of being black or white.
