Classical logic has long shaped how humans and machines reason about the world. It is precise, rigid, and binary. Something is either true or false, on or off, yes or no. Yet real-world situations rarely fit into such clean categories. Human reasoning is often approximate, gradual, and tolerant of uncertainty. Fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic emerged to address this gap. Instead of forcing reality into strict boundaries, fuzzy logic allows reasoning with degrees of truth, offering a more natural way to model complex, ambiguous systems. This approach has become especially valuable in modern intelligent systems where uncertainty is unavoidable.…
