BP876 Precise sorting of potential examples vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left Bongard Problems do not have to sort all relevant examples; if they would leave some border cases unsorted, it just has to be clear precisely which examples those would be.


Often a precise divide between values on a spectrum comes from intuitively "crossing a threshold." For example, there is an intuitive threshold between acute and obtuse angles. Two sides of a Bongard Problem on opposite ends of a threshold, coming close to it, are interpreted as having precise divide between sides, right up against that threshold.

BP877 "Less than vs. greater than" (or vice versa) vs. "equal to vs. greater than" (or "less than").
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left examples are quantity-comparison Problems in which the dividing point on the spectrum separating the sides lands between them. Right examples are quantity-comparison Problems in which the dividing point is the entirety of one of the sides (always the left side, for clarity).

Only less-than vs. greater-than Problems may have imprecise (BP876right) dividing point between sides.

BP875 Bongard Problem would sort all relevant examples vs. possible objects similar to those seen on both sides would have no clear sorting.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left examples partition a pool of objects cleanly into two classes.
