Derek Zahn said: I have not been able yet to successfully grasp exactly what counts as complex and what does not, and for things in between, how to judge the "degree" of complexity. ------------------------
I don't know what Loosemore's definitions are, but I do not believe that a measure of the degree of complexity would be useful except for some special constrained definitions of the term. The fact that you already have a sense that the degree of complexity is a relevant issue means that you already understand something of the concept. The fact that 'degree' has some relevance to the concept and yet it is difficult for you (or me) to figure out how one would go about judging the magnitude of it represents an important and significant insight about the concept of complexity as it is used in reference to general intelligence.
