Positioned right vs. positioned left.

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

	COMMENTS	`Center of shape's x coordinate is higher than zero (where zero is the middle of the picture).` `All examples in this Bongard Problem are small shape outlines.` `This is the first Bongard Problem in which absolute positioning is relevant.` `Shapes close to the middle would be ambiguous.`

Non-wiggly outline vs. wiggly outline.

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

	COMMENTS	`"Wiggly" means a high number of small concavities adjacent to one another all around the outline.` `All examples in this Bongard Problem are shape outlines.` `Shapes with outlines that are only wiggly within partial sections would be ambiguous. Shapes with outlines that have many medium-size concavities would be ambiguous.`
