BP902 This Bongard Problem vs. anything else.
BP902
BP1

becious

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

Although this Bongard Problem is self-referential, it's only because of the specific phrasing of the solution. "BP902 vs. anything else" would also work. The number 902 could have been chosen coincidentally.

BP988 Number of dots is a power of 2 vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Numbers of dots on the left can be obtained by repeatedly doubling 1 dot.

Numbers of dots on the left are the number of corners of a cube in some dimension.

BP989 Number of dots is n factorial for some n vs. not so.

COMMENTS

Zero is intentionally left out to avoid confusion (although it would fit right).

BP999 The collection of collections obeys the same rule as the individual collections vs. it does not.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Rhetorical question: Where would the collection of left examples of this Bongard Problem be sorted by this Bongard Problem? (The question is whether these examples considered together satisfy the pattern that all the parts do, namely that the whole satisfies the pattern that all the parts do.)

See BP793 and BP1004 for similar paradoxes.

CROSSREFS

See BP1005 for the version about only numerical properties; examples in that BP would be sorted the same way here that they are there.

See BP1003 for a similar idea. Rather than the collection of collections imitating the individual collections, BP1003 is about the total combined collection imitating the individual collections. A picture showing (for example) an odd number of even-numbered groups would be sorted differently by these two BPs.

Also see BP1004, which is likewise about the whole satisfying the same rule as its parts, but there the parts don't themselves have to be collections; there the parts are just plain individual objects. The panels in BP999 (this BP) should be sorted the same way in BP1004.

See BP1002, which is about only visual self-similarity instead of more general conceptual "self-similarity".

BP1005 The collection of dot clumps has the same numerical property as each of the dot clumps vs. not so.

CROSSREFS

This is a version of BP999 with only numbers.

Contrast BP1006, which is very similar.
