The Russian scientist M.M. Bongard published a book in 1967 that contains 100 problems. Each problem consists of 12 small boxes: six boxes on the left and six on the right. Each of the six boxes on the left conform to a certain rule. Each and every box on the right contradicts this rule. Your task, of course, is to figure out the rule.

You can find more Bongard problems at Harry Foundalis site, and I intend to publish more problems in the future.

Items on the left have an even number of straight sides – items on the right have an odd number?

What I had in mind was an even number of corners, and I think the two are mathematically equivalent.
