BP1005

The collection of dot clumps has the same numerical property as each of the dot clumps vs. not so.

BP1110

The process that turns one object into the other is the same both ways vs. the process changes depending on which object is chosen as the starting point.

BP1127

There is no rule for how the objects in a cluster interrelate vs. there is.

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

	COMMENTS	`Other ways of phrasing this:` `"Local" vs. "global" properties of collections: to check a collection satisfies a "local" property, it is only necessary to check each individual thing in it satisfies some property.` `The rule all collections satisfy is just "every object is a ___" vs. the rule is something more.`

BP1155

Shapes are sorted according to a simple rule that uniquely determines where everything goes vs. shapes are sorted according to some other rule (or lack thereof).

BP1157

The order in which the objects in the top half are combined to make the object in the lower half matters vs. not so.

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

	COMMENTS	`Operations depicted in right-sorted examples are called "commutative".` `"Order matters" here means that if the objects in the top half were to switch places, the output would look different.`

BP1257

The rule is about squares having a certain relationship with their neighbors vs. it is not.

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

	COMMENTS	`"Local vs. global."` `For clarity, rules involving diagonal neighbors or squares more than one step away are never used.` `The similar solution "Each square can be deduced from its neighbors vs. not so" does not quite work; for example EX8114 would then not fit left. See also BP1258 ("Each square can be deduced from the rest vs. not so").`

It is possible to deduce the contents of any square from the rest vs. it is not.

Rule is the same for rows as it is for columns vs. not

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

	CROSSREFS	`All examples on the left are chosen so that rotating or flipping the grid in any way would result in a grid satisfying the same rule.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1254 BP1255 BP1256 BP1257 BP1258 * BP1260 BP1261 BP1262 BP1263 BP1264`

Same transformation applied to circle, triangle, and square vs. different transformations applied.

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

	CROSSREFS	`BP839 is about applying opposite transformations to a single object.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1255 BP1256 BP1257 BP1258 BP1259 * BP1261 BP1262 BP1263 BP1264 BP1265`
