Why bother about filtered positions?

Previous chapter: Overview of filtered positions

Under construction

This is the last chapter of the Definitions page. Actually, it is hardly a chapter. All we want to say is: have a look at the Statistics page, which you are now able to understand.

We also want to explain shortly why we spent so much time on filtered positions. This started because of the following findings:

- January 25 has 216 solutions 

- October 6 has 7 solutions

These are the extremes of course, but nevertheless the difference is striking. 

Next the question comes up: Is there a way we can explain/predict/calculate this? 

The only candidate is the number of filtered positions. The assumption is that less filtered positions means (by definition) more unfiltered positions and hence more solutions.

If this really the way it works? We invite you to go to the Statistics page.
