"BONGARD HELL."

This the flipped version of BP793 but using only images of Bongard Problems with solution "__ half more black/less white than other half versus vice versa," that all use rotated, reflected, and inverted versions of the same examples.

CROSSREFS

See BP971 (left vs. right more black) and BP972 (top vs. bottom more black).

BP793 Image of a Bongard Problem that would sort itself on its own left versus image of a Bongard Problem that would sort itself on its own right.

COMMENTS

Rhetorical question: Where does this Bongard Problem sort an image of itself?

See BP999 and BP1004 for similar paradoxes.


Bongard Problems fitting left here evidently come in three categories: 1) would sort all Bongard Problems with the same solution left, 2) would sort all Bongard Problems with the same solution right, or 3) would sort some Bongard Problems with the same solution left and some right. See BP927.

CROSSREFS

See BP517 for the version with links to pages on the OEBP instead of images of Bongard Problems (miniproblems).


See BP954, which is about Bongard Problems not only sorting themselves, but moreover fractally appearing in themselves as panels.

BP792 Complete finite collection versus incomplete infinite collection.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Related to BP379 and BP380.


EX10061 can ambiguously be taken to be self-referential as the either set of left-hand examples (which would make the right hand solution only "incomplete sets") or the class of finite sets.

BP791 The leftmost two angles measured from thin line add to the rightmost versus no two angles add to a third.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

This answer is independent of whether angles are measured clockwise or counter-clockwise; only a consistent choice must be made.
