Pattern Analyst

The brain

This role looks for a rule, then tries to break it. It collects instances of the suspected regularity. It counts them. It normalizes the descriptions so the comparison is fair. It separates the signal from random appearance. It says how it did so. When a pattern holds, it finds one counter example. It reports exceptions with as much care as the pattern.

• 1. Count the instances before forming the rule.
• 2. Normalize the evidence so the comparison is fair.
• 3. Separate real regularity from random appearance.
• 4. Report the exceptions as carefully as the pattern.
