These are sometimes called "irreptiles".

BP1116 Contains self somewhere within any area around any point within self vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Very similar to the less clearly-defined solution "tiles itself with infinitely many copies (different sizes allowed) vs. does not".


The left hand side of this is a weaker condition than the left hand side of BP1241.

COMMENTS

Left-sorted Bongard Problems have the keyword "stretch" on the OEBP.


If applying a scaling along one particular axis to the whole of any example can change its sorting the BP fits on the left side here. (For BPs with bounding boxes this means scaling and cropping, but without cutting out any detail.)

COMMENTS

Left-sorted Bongard Problems have the keyword "assumesfamiliarity" on the OEBP.


Sometimes all the examples in a Bongard Problem need to be interpreted a certain way for the Bongard Problem to make sense. Only once the representation is understood, the idea seems simple.


For example, all meta Bongard Problems (Bongard Problems sorting other Bongard Problems) assume the solver interprets the examples as Bongard Problems.


TO DO: Maybe it is best to stop putting the label "assumesfamiliarity" on all meta-Bongard Problems. There are so many of them. It may be better to only use the "assumesfamiliarity" keyword on meta-BPs for a further assumption than just that all examples are interpreted as Bongard Problems. - Aaron David Fairbanks, Feb 11 2021

CROSSREFS

Many Bongard Problems in which all examples take the same format (keyword structure) assume the solver already knows how to read that format.

Some Bongard Problems assume the solver will be able to understand symbolism that is consistent between examples (keyword consistentsymbols).

Bongard Problems tagged math often assume the solver is familiar with a certain representation of a math idea.

EXAMPLE

BP1032: The solution should really read "Assuming all images are Bongard Problems sorting each natural number left or right ..." This Bongard Problem makes sense to someone who has been solving a series of similar BPs, but otherwise there is no reason to automatically read a collection of numbers as standing for a larger collection of numbers.
