Odd number of dots vs. even number of dots.

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

	CROSSREFS	`See BP334 for a version of the same idea, but using arbitrary shapes instead of dots.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP329 BP330 BP331 BP332 BP333 * BP335 BP336 BP337 BP338 BP339`
	KEYWORD	`precise, allsorted, number, math, left-narrow, right-narrow, right-null, help, traditional, preciseworld`
	CONCEPT	`even_odd (info \| search)`
	WORLD	`dots [smaller \| same \| bigger]`

Square number of dots vs. non-square number of dots.

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

	COMMENTS	`All examples in this Problem are a collection of dots.` `An equivalent solution is "Dots can be arranged into a square lattice whose convex hull is a square vs. not so". - Leo Crabbe, Aug 01 2020`
	CROSSREFS	`Adjacent-numbered pages: BP379 BP380 BP381 BP382 BP383 * BP385 BP386 BP387 BP388 BP389`
	EXAMPLE	`A single dot fits because 1 = 11.` `A pair of dots does not fit because there is no integer x such that 2 = xx.`

Triangular number of dots vs. non-triangular number of dots

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

	COMMENTS	`All examples in this Problem are groups of black dots.` `The nth triangular number is the sum over the natural numbers from 1 to n, where n > 0. Note: 0 is the 0th triangular number. The first few triangular numbers are 0, 1, 3 (= 1+2) and 6 (= 1+2+3)`

Number of dots is a power of 2 vs. not so.

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

	COMMENTS	`Numbers of dots on the left can be obtained by repeatedly doubling 1 dot.` `Numbers of dots on the left are the number of corners of a cube in some dimension.`

Number of dots is n factorial for some n vs. not so.

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

	COMMENTS	`Zero is intentionally left out to avoid confusion (although it would fit right).`
