Reversing the sequence permutes the objects vs. not.

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

	COMMENTS	`Equivalently, some permutation of the objects reverses the sequence vs. not.` `Palindromes fit left. Strings of distinct objects repeated any number of times fit left.`

BP1260

Same transformation applied to circle, triangle, and square vs. different transformations applied.

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

	CROSSREFS	`BP839 is about applying opposite transformations to a single object.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1255 BP1256 BP1257 BP1258 BP1259 * BP1261 BP1262 BP1263 BP1264 BP1265`

Rule is the same for rows as it is for columns vs. not

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

	CROSSREFS	`All examples on the left are chosen so that rotating or flipping the grid in any way would result in a grid satisfying the same rule.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1254 BP1255 BP1256 BP1257 BP1258 * BP1260 BP1261 BP1262 BP1263 BP1264`

It is possible to deduce the contents of any square from the rest vs. it is not.

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

	CROSSREFS	`BP979 is very similar: whether a particular square can be deduced from the rest.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1253 BP1254 BP1255 BP1256 BP1257 * BP1259 BP1260 BP1261 BP1262 BP1263`

BP1257

The rule is about squares having a certain relationship with their neighbors vs. it is not.

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

	COMMENTS	`"Local vs. global."` `For clarity, rules involving diagonal neighbors or squares more than one step away are never used.` `The similar solution "Each square can be deduced from its neighbors vs. not so" does not quite work; for example EX8114 would then not fit left. See also BP1258 ("Each square can be deduced from the rest vs. not so").`

BP1246

Any symmetry exhibited by some non-empty subset of the objects is also a symmetry of the whole thing vs. not so.

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

	COMMENTS	`In other words, placing the image over itself (rotation and flipping allowed) so that any parts match up makes the whole image match up to itself vs. not so.`
	CROSSREFS	`See BP965 for a variation on this idea where the "parts" are allowed to be arbitrary regions of the image instead of individual objects shown in the image.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1241 BP1242 BP1243 BP1244 BP1245 * BP1247 BP1248 BP1249 BP1250 BP1251`

BP1243

Bongard Problems on the OEBP with certain examples that have not yet been proved to fit where they are currently sorted vs. Bongard Problems in which all included examples have been proved to fit where they are.

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

	COMMENTS	`Bongard Problems sorted left have the keyword "missingproofs" on the OEBP.` `This is an administrative keyword to help us keep track of what Bongard Problems we still need to check for correctness.` `The description should indicate which examples are still in need of checking. Once proofs are found, the keyword "missingproofs" can be removed.` `The keyword noproofs is similar. The difference is whether we want/expect to find proofs.`
	CROSSREFS	`Bongard Problems tagged "missingproofs" should necessarily be hardsort.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1238 BP1239 BP1240 BP1241 BP1242 * BP1244 BP1245 BP1246 BP1247 BP1248`

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

	COMMENTS	`Left-sorted Bongard Problems have the keyword "testexample" on the OEBP.` `BP517 ("sorts self left vs. sorts self right") does not quite fit left; it is about the sorting of a specific example, but a different example for every Bongard Problem.`
