BP365 Two independent quantities changing simultaneously vs. determined by just one changing quantity.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Examples sorted right may feature multiple quantities, but one changing quantity determines all changing quantities.


The distinction between the two sides is fuzzy. For example the left-sorted example EX4364 could be viewed as determined by just the one changing quantity of width and the fact that the height is given by two times the width minus one. On the other hand the right-sorted example EX4370 could be viewed as determined by the two changing quantities number of black squares and number of white squares, ignoring the fact that the total number of squares is always six.
