History ⚫ In the early 1900’s, Lukasiewicz described a three-valued logic. The third value can be translated as the term “possible,” and he assigned it a numeric value between True and False. ⚫ Later, he explored four-valued logics, five-valued logics, and declared that in principle there was nothing to prevent the derivation of an infinitevalued logic
History Knuth proposed a three-valued logic similar to Lukasiewicz's. He speculated that mathematics would become even more elegant than in traditional bi-valued logic. His insight was to use the integral range [-1,0+1]rather than[0,1,2]

History Lotfi Zadeh,at the University of California at Berkeley,first presented fuzzy logic in the mid- 1960's. Zadeh developed fuzzy logic as a way of processing data.Instead of requiring a data element to be either a member or non-member of a set,he introduced the idea of partial set membership. In 1974 Mamdani and Assilian used fuzzy logic to regulate a steam engine. In 1985 researchers at Bell laboratories developed the first fuzzy logic chip

The World is vague Natural language employs many vague and imprecise concepts. Translating such statements into more precise language removes some of their semantic value. The statement "Dan has 100,035 hairs on his head" does not explicitly state that he is balding,nor does "Dan's head hair count is 1.6 standard deviations below the mean head hair count for people of his genetic pool". ● Suppose Dan were actually only 1.559999999 standard deviations below the mean?How does one determine his genetic pool?
