BP351

Discrete quantity vs. continuous quantity.

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

BP352

Increasing quantity has no lower (or upper) bound (and gives a representation of negative numbers) vs. increasing quantity has lower (and/or upper) bound.

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

	COMMENTS	`All left examples have a clear "zero" value, but it may be unclear which side is meant to be positive and which side is meant to be negative (See BP893^left for quantities without clear notion of increase/decrease.)`
	CROSSREFS	`See BP353^left for looping quantities; these do not clearly represent positive and negative numbers, but they can likewise unboundedly decrease and increase.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP347 BP348 BP349 BP350 BP351 * BP353 BP354 BP355 BP356 BP357`
	KEYWORD	`creativeexamples, structure, sequence, traditional, rules`
	CONCEPT	`size_increase_decrease (info \| search),` `iteration (info \| search),` `tracing_line_or_curve (info \| search)`

BP848

Lower bound object shown vs. not so.

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

	CROSSREFS	`Adjacent-numbered pages: BP843 BP844 BP845 BP846 BP847 * BP849 BP850 BP851 BP852 BP853`

BP893

As one quantity increases an equally obvious opposite quantity decreases vs. there is only one obvious quantity, which increases as the sequence progresses right.

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

	COMMENTS	`Another way of phrasing the solution: "Neither direction would more naturally be called increase in quantity vs. rightward progression would be called an increase."` `Most right examples shown are unboundedly increasing, since finite sequences showing a quantity increasing usually also suggest "distance to end of sequence" as a decreasing opposite quantity. Even so, there are some finite sequences with one direction more intuitively increase-like than the other.`
