BP971 Left half has more black (less white) than right half versus vice versa.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

A similar, but different, solution is "center of mass is on the left half vs. center of mass is on the right half."

BP972 Top half has more black (less white) than bottom half versus vice versa.

COMMENTS

A similar, but different, solution is "center of mass is above the horizontal vs. center of mass is below the horizontal."

BP986 Palindromes vs. not palindromes.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

All examples in this Problem are sequences of graphic symbols. In this Problem, a "palindrome" is taken to be an ordered sequence which is the same read left-to-right as it is read right-to-left. A more formal solution to this Problem could be: "Sequences which are invariant under a permutation which swaps first and last entries, second and second last entries, third and third last entries, ... and so on vs. sequences which are not invariant under the aforementioned permutamation."

BP992 Concave shapes with concave cavities vs. convex cavities
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

All examples in this Problem are solid concave black shapes. In this Problem, the "cavities" of a concave shape are defined to be the convex hull of the shape minus the shape itself. For example, if you take a bite out of the edge of a piece of paper, the piece of paper in your mouth is the cavity of the bitten piece of paper. The idea may be indefinitely extended, considering whether the cavities of the cavities are concave or convex, and so on.
