COMMENTS

The first Bongard Problem.

All examples in this Bongard Problem are line drawings (one or more connected figures made up of curved and non-curved lines).

REFERENCE

EXAMPLE

A circle fits on the right because it is not nothing.

REFERENCE

CROSSREFS

BP152 is the same solution (with the sides switched), using connected shapes and without black filling.

BP1206 was created to be a slightly different version of this: "vertical axis of symmetry vs. no vertical axis of symmetry." (That less specific solution fits this Bongard Problem as well.)

BP384 Square number of dots vs. non-square number of dots.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

All examples in this Problem are a collection of dots.


An equivalent solution is "Dots can be arranged into a square lattice whose convex hull is a square vs. not so". - Leo Crabbe, Aug 01 2020

CROSSREFS

Adjacent-numbered pages:
BP379 BP380 BP381 BP382 BP383  *  BP385 BP386 BP387 BP388 BP389

EXAMPLE

A single dot fits because 1 = 1*1.

A pair of dots does not fit because there is no integer x such that 2 = x*x.
